Injury to Bordeaux winger, Samuel is undoubtedly a huge blow ahead and the important friendly against Brazil.
But as people always say, injury is part of football and the Super Eagles must march out with Brazil in Singapore.
As things stand, Eagles Gaffer, Gernot Rohr who was thinking about parading the destructive attacking trio of Samuel Chukwueze, Victor Osimhen and Samuel Kalu will now switch things up a bit.
Wilfred Ndidi will return to the starting eleven since Africa Cup of Nations to compliment Oghenekaro Etebo who will act as central midfielder.
Newly introduced Joseph 'Ayodele' Aribo will be the arrow head in the midfield of three while Everton latest recruit, Alex Iwobi will likely operate from the left-wing of the attack.
Back four will not change due to the injury to the most-experienced Kenneth Omeruo as Semi Ajayi, Vice-captain William Troost-Ekong, Ola Aina and Jamilu Collins will continue from where they stopped against Ukraine.
