The time will tell. Dessers is hard to mark down because of his trickery in front of goal.
I hope NFF are watching and if I don’t see Dessers against Mexico and Ecuador then, Dessers should represent Belgium. Shikena. God bless Nigeria!!!
I read that Belgium is going to call him up soon. Look at the views on this alone…..This can tell you that Belgian team selectors already are aware. I will advise that he should accept the Belgian team and try to make the squad to the WC. Nigerian football administrators are trash and we don’t deserve this guy.

The second goal in this clip tells a lot about his ball intelligence.

How many of the strikers you listed have 15 goals this season? The audacity to even list Benteke and Kayembe….
Now you got me right but the guy still insisted on playing for Naija.
I just hope he doesn’t regret that in the future.
Cyriel Dessers… A striker with instinctive awareness and mind presence…
Austin Eguaveon: “I have not watched the guy Cyriel Dessers play… they he won’t one to talk about how Gabriel Agbonlahor snubbed him and refuse to even meet with him he went to visit and talk to him at Aston Villa”
When Nigeria football fans remember the name Austin Eguaveon, for a long time what will continue to echo in their heads will just be pain and frustration.
Austin Eguaveon has caused too much pain in Nigeria football. He is supposed to be managing an NPFL club and not anywhere near any corporate position tied to football administration in Nigeria. He is dishonest and not dependable.
Is this the real Jimmyball or a clone one? Are you really saying this? You that want to “fail and drown with your own” lolz… Wonder shall never end
@jimmyball you are a very funny individual. You gladly said let us fail with our own. We failed woefully as expected and now you are calling the person a dishonest individual. He invited all the players you clamoured for na. He was even giventhe assistant coach you wanted
You actually got what you wanted so don’t complain
Paul Bassey and his brothers at the glass house will not call him up, we’ve too many Yoruba foreign born in super eagles, remember folks eagles shirts is reserved for their mediocre players
Egus Baba, the clueless one! I still can wrap my mind around the fact that he intended to call Silas Nwankwo ahead of this born goal scoring machine.
