Nigeria forward Isaac Success says he is not desperate to play international football again, Completesports.com reports.
Success has not featured for the Super Eagles since the international friendly against the Cranes of Uganda in 2018.
The 25-year-old has been hampered by injuries and loss of form since then.
“I think every footballer wants to represent their country,” Success told Perform.
“That is my aim. I’ve had a couple of injuries that set me back. But it’s all about the comeback. That is what I was focusing on every time I was injured or on the sidelines.

“Most of the time when I got injured it was because I wasn’t really fit. I made mistakes. I got distracted and it happened that way. I’m happy I’m back, fit, training and getting game time. I’m improving every day.
“I’m not really 100 per cent focused on breaking into the squad right now. The Africa Cup of Nations is in January so right now I’m focusing on my team and improving. But yes, I would be excited to play again.”
Success who has made four Serie A appearances for his new team scoring a goal also stated that he is keen to help Udinese win games.
“As a striker, if I get a chance I want to score and get the win. But my focus is on helping the team rather than individual performances.
“If a chance comes, or the chance to get an assist, I always want it. I’m purely focused on helping the team.”

Discipline is the success key to every Great persons. Be discipline in every ramification and you’ll flourish!!!
Up coming strikers that play in top5 leagues are given few minutes on the pitch to perform or get kicked out of SE…….But a 32+ years old striker who has added weight, can’t run again and can never play top level football again is given a start after 2 years…….Success Awoniyi Moffi and Dennis deserve their complete chance not few minutes on the pitch…….They play top level football and we must start grooming and blending them into SE now…….Let us stop making silly excuses to keep this young talents away from the team……. Excuses like “their time will come”….they should be consistent”….club football is different from national team football”…..”they are not Rhor’s trusted soldier”……”we need experience”……..This players are our future and if we allow Rhor kill their international careers,we will be the loser because Rhor will park his bags and go back to his country one day…….But it will take us time to produce such attacking talents and see them rise to top5 league level again……As much as we need results (which this young players can also give us if they are given playing time and confidence) we also need our future to be secured.
We never forget this guy star performance against Manchester United.
ANYBODY THAT SEE YOUR FACE WE KNOW FOR SURE THAT YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS WITH YOUR FOOTBALL CAREER, INSTEAD YOU PREFER TO BE CARRY FIVE U.K GIRLS TO NIGHT CLUB PER NIGHT.
Did they just day he’s 25years old?oh please let’s cut that crap,we all know the reason why success isn’t successful in football career it’s simply because he’s an age cheat and fitness and full recovery from injuries is a function of age,the older you get the lesser your recovery from injuries and fitness becomes,most especially from this part of the world Africa
My advice for him is to quit football and starts exporting cars from Italy for sales “Tokumbo” I think that will do him a whole lot more Shikena leave football for much younger people,players like Ansu fathi are busy painting la liga red that’s allured to the fact that his playing with his real age,he’s fresh and Young
Why are you so hateful, we are too quick to calling our players unprintable names and it is not good. We have to always remember that the whole World read this platform. Do unto others what you expect them to do to you bro.
