Today at Legit.ng we will be taking a look at five Nigerian big players that were omitted from the provisional 30 man World Cup squad list. 1. Henry Onyekuru: The Everton striker who is currently on loan to Belgian side Anderlecht is almost a guarantee to make the World Cup team for the Super Eagles but rather than making the provisional squad list, Onyekuru made our list for World Cup absentees. The 20-year-old suffered a devastating injury against former club Eupen on December 22 and scan revealed he will be out for six month. Onyekuru may be back in action as he has resumed full training, but that definitly was not enough to please Gernot Rohr. 2. Obafemi Martins: There was huge belief that Obafemi Martins will be included in the Super Eagles World Cup squad considering his experience but a gory injury suffered in the Asian Champions League on Tuesday, April 3 against Kashima Antlers - ruled out Obagoal from this year's World Cup.
