Paul Onuachu will resume training on Friday after recovering from the coronavirus.
Genk Manager, Hannes Wolf, confirmed this; saying that he can now rejoin the rest of his squad ahead of their clash against Dutch side Excelsior.
“But Friday, Onuachu will just train with the group. Paul can also compete against Excelsior on Friday in the exhibition match,” Wolf told Het Nieuws Blad.
Last week, the lanky forward tested positive to Covid-19 on his return from Nigeria to the Luminus Arena ahead of their friendly game against Eendracht Termien, which was subsequently cancelled.
The Super Eagles striker has since been in quarantine but has not fully recovered from the virus and tested negative after another round of test.
The 26-year-old forward also missed the Blue and White’s victory over Royal Union Saint-Gilloise in Wednesday’s friendly.
