Joel Obi returns from injury

Nigeria international Joel Obi has returned to training after recovering from an injury while playing for Torino.

The former Inter Milan midfielder was forced off early after assisting with the first goal in his side’s 3-1 win against AS Roma last month.

A post on Il Toro’s official website read: “Obi and Vives (Giuseppe) played part of the session with his teammates and then closed the workout with a personalized program.

“Obi and Vives (Giuseppe) have almost completed the rehabilitation process, so soon will work with the group.”

The 25-year-old injury- prone player has made five appearances for the Turin-based outift this season but is yet to score a goal and has been capped 15 times by the Super Eagles.

Siniša Mihajlovic’s men square up against Palermo on Monday evening at the Stadio Renzo Barbera.
