Very weak team. Disjointed in approach. Keshi won afcon with the likes of unknown quantities like home based Sunday Mba and Obaigbona. That was a coach, not this journey man who feels that no home based goalkeeper is as good as Uzoho

Worry, Anxiety In Nigeria, As super eagles number 1 Francis Uzoho Is Set To Arrive Super Eagles UAE Camp Late

The 25-year-old may arrive Super Eagles later than the initial 1st January 2024, date by CAF.

Omonia Nicosia is in dire need of their senior experienced goalie as first choice goalkeeper is out injured.

Reports say the Cypriot giants have written to the NFF so it forgive the shot-stopper's late arrival.

The former Deportivo la Coruna safe-hands, is expected to man Super Eagles goal at the 2024 AFCON.

I’m sure there is are at least two goalkeepers in the Nigerian league that are better than this guy.

AFCON 2023: Peseiro to drop Ndidi, Iheanacho from Super Eagles squad

The head coach of the Super Eagles, Jose Peseiro, is set to drop Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho from his final squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Leicester City duo are injured and are not likely to be fit for the tournament in Ivory Coast.

Ndidi missed Monday night’s 4-1 home win against Huddersfield Town, while Iheanacho has missed the Foxes; last two Championship games due to a muscular problem.


Sources have now told DAILY POST that Ndidi and Iheanacho could be replaced by Terem Moffi and Alhassan Yusuf.

The Eagles have already begun camping in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The majority of the invited players are expected to arrive in Abu Dhabi from their different bases across Europe
