Initially raising concerns over his fitness after leaving camp ahead of schedule, speculation arose that the midfielder might have sustained an injury during Nigeria’s friendly match against Ghana.
However, fresh updates indicate that Onyeka’s exit was prompted by personal reasons rather than any fitness issues.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his availability, the Midfielder who has been in fine form for Brentford since returning from Africa Cup of Nations, could still feature against Manchester United.
The 26 year-old has been a pivotal figure for Brentford, having featured in their last six Premier League encounters prior to the international break.
