“I really feel the support and I know that they are watching," he said in an interview with LondonWorld. “I will be back, but for now I want them to support me and help with the AFCON so I can return as a champion and we can have a great season together.

“All the games are tough here, and when you get to the knockout stages of AFCON you need a bit of luck and pray to avoid any bad injuries. I must say we are together, so fingers crossed one after the other.

“I won't say anything – we all know what winning the AFCON will mean to all of us."
