As Niger Tornadoes prepare to face the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) leaders, Remo Stars, the technical adviser of Niger Tornadoes, Majin Mohammed, has confirmed that injured star midfielder Victor Okoro is likely to return for the Sunday clash.
Okoro missed the club's last game against Bayelsa United due to the injury he sustained during the last home game against Ikorodu City.

Majin believes Okoro’s absence affected the team in Bayelsa and hopes his return will positively influence the team against Remo Stars.
"Victor Okoro suffered a minor knock in Maiduguri. He played in our home game against Ikorodu City, but we realized he was exhausted, which is why we rested him for the trip to Yenagoa," Mohammed said.
“Hopefully, he will be back for the weekend.”
