Obodo Set For Jan Comeback
Udinese midfielder, Christian Obodo is scheduled to return to the pitch in late January, after a long injury lay-off.
Obodo, 25, has not featured for his club at all this season since suffering a relapse of the anterior cruciate ligament injury that previously sidelined him for nearly a year.
But he told Tidesports’ source that his rehabilitation has gone without a hitch.
“I started jogging a while ago, and now I have started doing ball work.
“I expect to start playing again by the end of January,” he said.
Obodo, one of Nigeria’s most dynamic box to box midfielders, last played for the Super Eagles in the first round of the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Sierra Leone, weighing in with a cracking effort in the 4-1 win.
