<br>The omission of Vince Osuji from Club Brugge’s Champions League squad is not necessarily a setback but rather a strategic decision. At just 18, Osuji is seen as a long term prospect for the club, and his exclusion from such a high stakes game against a powerhouse like Manchester City is likely due to experience rather than ability.

<br>On the other hand, the inclusion of Raphael Onyedika underlines the growing influence of Nigerian players in European football. Onyedika, who has been a consistent performer for Brugge, will have a key role in helping his side compete against the English champions. His presence in midfield could be crucial in disrupting City’s dominance and providing stability for Brugge.

<br>For Brugge, this game is more than just a group-stage fixture it’s an opportunity to prove themselves on Europe’s biggest stage. Their impressive form so far they can compete, but facing a team of City’s calibre will require a near perfect performance.
