David Okereke will now be available for selection as Club Brugge prepare to take on Odion Ighalo’s Manchester United in Europa like clash on Thursday.

The Super Eagles striker Okereke, who recently returned from an injury that has kept him out of action for the three weeks, is likely to lead the attack for Club Brugge after his compatriot Emmanuel Dennis was ruled out the of the game at Old Trafford.

Philipe Clement’s side held the Red Devils to a 1-1 draw last week, and they are going into the second leg as outsiders due to the absence of their main striker Dennis, but Okereke believes that he can do a great job for the Club.

“I’m glad to be part of squad to face Manchester United and we shall give our best to ensure a passage into the next round.

“The 1-1 draw won’t deter us from going all out to attack in Manchester and I hope to do well personally”, he told journalists.
