“I hope he stays as far away from us and our goal as possible,” said Troost-Ekong.

He also hit out at those undermining the coverage of the bi-annual tournament.
Troost-Ekong, who has been at Watford since September 2020, said he hoped the Africa Cup of Nations would get the coverage it deserves this year and shed light on the quality of the tournament.
