The good news about this whole scenario is that Peseiro must PESEGO. I am sure the NFF president and his cahoots have started negotiating their percentage with the new coach.
The Super Eagles have never won AFCON without homebased outfield players. This will not be an exception. Miracles do happen nevertheless
Stop peddling lies. Name one home based player that played a match in the 1994 AFCON for Nigeria?
Today I wil no reason y okoye wasn’t in action for his clubs since..
I now know the reason.
So that he will not be invited to afcon.
No Nigerian president played football for a school eleven, or was a notable athlete. This is a reason Nigeria fails to appreciate the vutal role of sports in national growth Mr.Eno should not start making the usual promises that will never be fulfilled.
