[News] You Can't Play For Super Eagles Anymore If You Are Not In First Division-Oliseh

Coach Sunday Oliseh has fired a warning, stating that he
will only consider players who feature in top leagues both
home and abroad.

Stephen Keshi, however was known to call up players from
the lower leagues overseas.

Sunday Oliseh said he wants to make changes and not do
the same thing Stephen Keshi did. He said:
“If you are not playing in first division in anywhere in the
world and in Nigeria, you cannot play for the Super
Eagles henceforth,” Oliseh warned at a media
presentation in Abuja on Wednesday.
“However players coming from the under-aged teams are
the only exception to this rule.”

Oliseh said it is an honour to lead the Eagles now as a
coach, but that he cannot turn around the footballing
fortunes of the country by himself.

“It’s a great honour to be a coach of this nation,” he said.

“First of all, I am not coming as a Messiah. I am not
coming as a man who can single handedly turn Nigeria to
Germany.

“I am coming in to do my best and give if possible 150%
all the time.

“The state we are now in Nigeria I think we are all not
happy with. Gone are the days we have individual players
who can single handedly win a match for you. But we
have the potentials and that is our belief and the players
must know that it’s an honour to be invited to the national
team.
