Super Eagles forward Chidera Ejuke has been linked with an emergency move to premier league side Liverpool.
Ejuke is one of the players on the standby list as Nigeria prepares for a crunch World Cup qualifiers doubleheader against the Black Stars of Ghana later this month.
Ejuke has been left frustrated by the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine as activities in both countries have been halted.
Having played 19 times for his club CSKA Moscow, Ejuke may lose his place in the National team if he continues to stay without active football.
The forward has also played five times in the Europa League for CSKA and the 24-year old is well vested with the European scene.
Liverpool are looking for more options in the wide area as Sadio Mane has been used in the middle for some time now.
FIFA has announced an emergency transfer window for players plying their trade in both Russia and Ukraine and this could be an escape route for Ejuke to revive his national team career.
