Rohr not taking risk with Samuel Kalu

Super Eagles gaffer, Gernot Rohr is not ready to take chances with Bordeaux star, Samuel Kalu.

The 21-year-old winger was reported to have collapsed while trying to play a corner kick during training some days ago.

It was initially reported to be heart attack but it was later revealed to be caused by dehydration. Talking about the availability of the French-based explosive attacker, Rohr states his reliance on medical results before acting.
" He is okay now, he's in high spirits. We will wait for more green light from the medical team before we can decide whether he can play. The rest is up to the medics."

The Super Eagles will take on Guinea in the second group game on Wednesday after winning Burundi by 1-0 over the weekend.
