The Nigerian winger has been sidelined for six games with a knee injury but recently returned to full training with his teammates. Softfootball reports that he is expected to be available for the match on Tuesday.

His potential return is a major boost for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, who need to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit to secure their place in the Round of 16 of the competition.

The 27-year-old has been instrumental this season, recording 14 goals and seven assists in 24 appearances across all competitions.

His creativity and goal-scoring ability will be vital for Atalanta as they look to bridge the gap and advance to the next stage of Europe’s elite club tournament.
