Super Eagles Defender Ola Aina Joins Torino Training After International Duty

Published: October 18, 2018

Torino have started their preparations for this weekend's trip to Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, where they will face Bologna on game week nine in the Italian Serie A.

Torino have informed that Chelsea loanee Ola Aina has returned to the club after his international commitments with the Nigerian National Team.

The right back was an 18th minute substitute in the Super Eagles 4-0 rout of Libya on Saturday, before playing the entirety of their 3-2 win against the same opponents on Tuesday, October 16.

Torino held a technical and tactical session this afternoon under the guidance of manager Walter Mazzarri and Aina was among the players in attendance.

The 22-year-old has figured for The Maroons in all their matches in the Italian topflight so far this season, of which five were starts.

Former Golden Eaglets and Flying Eagles attacker Orji Okonkwo is expected to be part of Bologna's match day squad for the visit of Torino.
