[b][size=14pt] AF Nigeria Nigeria Premier League 2016 Enugu Rangers EXCLUSIVE: Rohr pushes out coach Imama [/size] Coach Rohr with Iheanacho in Uyo on Tuesday by Samm Audu New Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has made his first major change in the team – he has asked that he would not need assistant coach Imama Amakapabo. Franco-German Rohr jetted into the country this week with an adviser, a fitness trainer as well as a video specialist. Amakapabo has proved to be one of the country’s brightest young coaches as he leads Enugu Rangers to a first league championship after 32 long years. However, Rohr is not impressed and has asked that the assistant coach be dropped. “Yes, it’s true that the new coach (Rohr) has decided he does not need Imama,” a team official informed. “That decision came to us as a big shock especially knowing that it was the technical committee who appointed him.” Former Nigeria U17 goalkeeper Imama first worked as part of the Eagles backroom staff in the May friendlies against Mali and Luxembourg as an assistant to Salisu Yusuf. He will also assist Yusuf with the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) All-Stars playing tour of Spain recently. Earlier Tuesday, Imama disclosed he will rejoin his club Rangers for a rescheduled home game against MFM FC on Wednesday, saying he does not wish to take any chances as Rangers stay among the prominent league title chasers. africanfootball.com/news/643672/EXCLUSIVE-Rohr-pushes-out-coach-Imama [/b] 1 Like |

The 20-year-old leftback completed his transfer Tuesday. The former El Kanemi Warriors star featured at the recent Rio Olympics, where Nigeria won a bronze medal. He has been capped at U20, Olympics and full international levels. He has delayed his joining the Eagles training camp in Uyo till Wednesday on account of his transfer. Trencin have proved to be a good conveyor belt for young top-class talent to Belgium as they have brought through Moses Simon (Gent), Wesley Moraes (Club Brugge) and Leon Bailey (KRC Genk) most recently. africanfootball.com/news/643632/Kingsley-Madu-signs-3-year-deal-with-Belgian-club-Zulte-Waregem [/b] 1 Like |

[b][size=14pt] AF Nigeria Nigeria Premier League 2016 Enugu Rangers Official: Rohr order on Imama not formal [/size] A top NFF official has confirmed Gernot Rohr has said he does not wish to work with assistant coach Imama Amapakabo, but they are yet to receive a formal letter to that effect. “Yes, Rohr has said he does not wish to work with Imama. But we have not received an official communication in this respect and so cannot react to this decision until we have,” said the top official. “The executive committee appointed Imama just as they hired Rohr and so the matter must be brought before them for the next line of action. “Imama was not picked on the streets and so due process must be followed if he now has to be disengaged.” Franco-German coach Rohr has arrived the country and hit the ground running accompanied by three assistants he handpicked. In the meantime, Imama has quit the Eagles training camp in Uyo this morning so as to be on bench of title-chasing Enugu Rangers in a rescheduled league match in Enugu against MFM FC in the evening. africanfootball.com/news/643705/Official-Rohr-order-on-Imama-not-formal [/b] |

terzurum5: Just Negodu this boy. He rejected a chance to work with a few former great player. Gus Poyet is the coach of Betis. Omeruo would have gained from the experience. Sometimes, it is not about money but development. Look at Nolito who was at Celta Vigo. The exposure led him to the Spanish team and now he is earning big at City. I guess the tip was from Finidi George but Omo Naija is about the money first. I feel Omeruo missed a big opportunity there. A good performance at Betis will land him a good contract. He would have one year remaining which will make signing him easily. Instead he will play at Turkey. Wish him the best. Can not believe this guy turned down Poyet. 1 Like |

[b][size=14pt] Gernot Rohr Keeps Chelsea Star Mikel And Manchester City Iheanacho Out Of Super Eagles Training [/size] [img]http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/08/31/gernot-rohr-keeps-chelsea-star-mikel-and-manchester-city-iheanacho-out-of-super-eagles-training/[/img] Newly appointed Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr had his first training session with the Nigeria senior national team yesterday evening, without the England based duo of John Obi Mikel and Kelechi Iheanacho. The duo were talked to separately by the German trainer before the start of training, and they were both left out as they had individual sessions with the team masseur and physiotherapist. No reason was given for their exemption but Owngoalnigeria.com gathered, Rohr possibly exempted Iheanacho from his first session to allow him time with the masseur due to the muscle injury he recently recovered from. Meanwhile, Mikel who started jogging with the team before a chatwoth the coach saw him leave the training for a session with the Physioterapist could be nursing a slight knock picked up at the Olympics. The duo are as good as been ruled out of today’s friendly game against Akwa United which will take place by 5pm at the nest of champions in Uyo, venue of the dead rubber AFCON 2017 qualifiers game against Tanzania. owngoalnigeria.com/2016/08/31/gernot-rohr-keeps-chelsea-star-mikel-and-manchester-city-iheanacho-out-of-super-eagles-training/ [/b] 1 Like |

[b][size=14pt] Imama Dares Gernort Rohr Over Super Eagles Sack [/size] [img]http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/08/31/imama-dares-gernort-rohr-over-super-eagles-sack/[/img] Coach of Enugu Rangers Imama Amapakabo has reacted angrily to stories making the rounds, that he has been sacked by newly appointed Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr. Reports broke out last night, that the Franco German has ordered the former Nigeria U17 goalkepper to stay away from the team, as he is comfortable with the three assistants he brought in. Imama and Salisu Yusuf were appointed as assistant coaches to the German by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), but the German flew into Nigeria with three of his own assistants in Jean- Luc Royer, Nabil Trabelsi and Everton Ferreira. Aside from goalkepper trainer Alloy Agu, Rohr picked Yusuf as the only Nigerian trainer he wants in his coaching crew according to various reports, but Imama says he left the camp out of his own volition, not because he was asked to leave by the German. ”I left to prepare my team for today’s game against MFM FC, we are in a title race, we need all points we can gather, am shocked to hear stories that Rohr has sacked me, even the NFF are not aware” Imama said to our correspondent on phone. ”Hopefully I will return to the team after our game, maybe that will give people a better picture of what am saying”. owngoalnigeria.com/2016/08/31/imama-dares-gernort-rohr-over-super-eagles-sack/ CC:BascoVanVeli [/b] 2 Likes |

Lots of interesting moves in the transfer window for Nigerian players. Rabiu Ibrahim to Gent (Belgium) Anderson Esiti to Gent (Belgium ) Sadiq Umar to Bologna (Italy) Elderson to standard Liege (Belgium ) Kingsley Madu to Zulte Waregem (Belgium ) Amuzie to Sampdoria ((Italy) Not forgetting Musa and Isaac Success. Apart from echiejiele, the rest are upward moves. Sadiq Umar will get more opportunities in Bologna. Esiti has been outstanding in Portugal but has not been given the platform to be invited to the national team. Gent is a better team for him. Amuzie was supposed to sign for Sampdoria before his career threatening injury. Good to see him back. Belgium is a better place for Madu to stake a claim that he deserves to play in the top leagues. Rabiu Ibrahim, unlike most of his set is still playing well. Are the good times of Nigerian football back?? 1 Like |

We need a pattern that would give Nigerians hope when our senior team is 2-0 down and we pull and Istanbul comeback. that's what we need. it's been a while since Eagles got hope when we are 1-0 down or so.
