Genk striker, Paul Onuachu, has accepted his exclusion from the Super Eagles squad in good faith.
However, he has vowed to continue fighting for a place in Gernot Rohr’s team.
Earlier this week, Gernot Rohr released his 24-man team for the country’s 2022 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixtures against Benin and Lesotho later this month.
Despite leading the goalscoring charts in the Belgian First Division A with 25 goals in 29 matches, Onuachu did not make the list but he was placed on standby.
“It’s the coach’s decision, and I respect it, he has the final say, and there’s nothing I can do to it, but I will do my best at all times and always fight to represent my fatherland,” the former Midtjylland forward told the Punch.
In March 2019, Onuachu scored his one and only international goal for Nigeria in their 1-0 victory against Egypt in a friendly encounter.
