Super Falcons striker Asisat Oshoala has undergone surgery on her right foot, FC Barcelona Femeni have confirmed.
The club in a statement said the surgery was to correct the defect on her right foot.
The statement read, “The player had been suffering from discomfort for a few weeks, which had caused her to miss a game, such as the one at Santa Teresa.
“The intervention was given by Dr. Dalmau, under the supervision of the Medical Services of FC Barcelona. The evolution of the player will mark her return to the field of play.”
Oshoala played for Barcelona in their UEFA Women’s Champions League match against Manchester City last week.
The 26-year-old has scored 15 goals in 20 league appearances for Barcelona this season.
Meanwhile, Oshoala seems stunned as Nigerian music superstar Davido rocked her Barcelona jersey in style as she praised the artiste on social media.

Both stars are said to be a fan of each other as the Nigerian footballer recently signed with a sports management headed by Davido’s manager Asa Asika.
Oshoala wears the No.20 shirt for the Barcelona Femeni and it is believed that she had handed a replica of her jersey to the music icon.
On her latest Instagram story, the footballer expressed delight having seen her shirt on the music crooner and she captioned it ‘world’s best’.
The Nigerian, as well as Namibia’s Zenatha Coleman who plays for Valencia, raised an alarm that they would love to return home to spend time with their families as a result of the cancellation of the Spanish Primera Iberdrola at that time.
Oshoala contributed 26 goals in all competitions for Barcelona, including 20 in 19 league games to emerge as the league’s second-highest scorer during the 2019-20 season.
