I just got a knock after the Sporting game (on March 9th, ed). And that was before I even came to the Super Eagles camp two weeks ago. <br /><br />''I am concerned of the injury, it is swollen. But that is not stopping me from training at all. I trained till Saturday last week. Just want to visit a specialist to know the extent of injury.<br /><br />''Hopefully, I will be fine and ready for the upcoming games in June.''<br /><br />24 - year - old John Ogu made his international debut against Kenya last month in a World Cup qualifying fixture.<br /><br /><br />
