https://www.goal.com/en/news/teammate-doesnt-want-akpoguma-to-play-for-the-super-eagles/319tg5km0ghc126ltrpc4nmlr Samassekou doesn’t want Akpoguma to play for the Super Eagles The Hoffenheim midfielder believes, nonetheless, that the centre-back would be a good addition for Nigeria Hoffenheim midfielder Diadie Samassekou has acknowledged that he doesn’t want his club teammate Kevin Akpoguma to represent the Super Eagles, as he’s worried about how much the centre-back could improve Nigeria. The defender was born in Germany but is eligible for the West African giants via his father, and has previously stated that he’d be open to representing the Super Eagles, despite having represented Germany at youth level. While teammate Samassekou believes the 25-year-old would be a good asset for Gernot Rohr’s side, he’s attempted to dissuade the towering defender from committing to Nigeria. “I think he would be a great help for [Nigeria],” Mali international Samassekou told Goal , “so for me, it would be better if they didn’t have Akpo. “[I haven’t really asked him about it] because I’m not Nigerian,” the midfielder continued, “but for the development and improvement of African football, it would be great if he goes there.” Akpoguma hasn’t represented Germany at any level since 2017, having worked his way up from U-16 level to the U-21s, but is yet to formally be introduced to the Nigeria set-up despite opening the door to a switch in 2018. “I don’t know what he’s thinking,” Samassekou concluded. “This is a question you should ask him, and he’ll give you the right answer.” Akpoguma signed for Hoffenheim from Karlsruher in 2013, but has taken his time settling in the first team. This season, however, having previously had loan stints with Fortuna Dusseldorf and Hannover 96, he’s made 16 appearances in the Bundesliga including 12 starts. It’s been a strong campaign from the club, who are still firmly in the race for European qualification with four matches to go. Ahead of Friday evening’s game against RasenBallsport Leipzig, the villagers are only two points behind sixth-placed Wolfsburg, who currently occupy the last Europa League qualification berth. The German top flight is currently a hotbed for Nigerian players and dual-nationality Nigerian talents. Kingsley Ehizibue is one of the most recent new call-ups to Rohr’s Nigeria squad, while the likes of Anthony Ujah and Jamilu Collins have been familiar faces in the past and present. There’s also a seam of potential new invitees to the national side, with Ademola Lookman and Jordan Torunarigha among several players eligible to turn out for the Eagles. ![]() bad belle 1 Like |

IF he starts playing for City, I definitely will. Same applies to any player now having a rough patch. K.Nwakali etc Like I said, if he commits to Nigeria today he will be down the pecking order in SE. That's the context of my original post. Modified, Certainly, Uduokhai, Torunarigha are players that would push for places if they commit today. komekn: |

few pages ago you assumed that i differed with you because I was bearing a grudge or whatever you were trying to imply. Now you are playing victim that someone got you banned. I wonder what stops you from creating a new moniker to argue your case. I didn't rain any abuses in your direction so nothing stops you from answering my posts. I advise others to stay out of the discussion and watch. So no excuses now. So many claims you made in your posts that has no factual backing. I'm waiting for you to prove it without resorting to calling names. It's as easy as that. elunico: |

do4luv14:kai you want Colin Udoh but you don't want Odegbami,then am speechless. Do you really know Segun Odegbami? Apart from being a good footballer in his days, Odegbami love the game so dearly.He solely worked tirelessly and made sure Nigeria played England after US 94(Wembly showdown) He was one of the brains behind private investment in Nigeria league and sports in general.I remember how Odegbami always traveling with eagles to give us live updates on what was going on in eagles Camp Apart from football,Odegbami ventured into other sports by managing sports men and women.If you don't know,Odegbami took over the management of Chioma Ajunwa prior to Atlanta 96 and the result was a gold medal won by individual(Ajunwa)till date in Nigeria Olympics history. If not for highly politicking in Nigeria sport administration,someone like Odegbami should have been NFA chairman long time ago even sport minister. 1 Like |

Let me delve into d issue of world class stuff,as for me any player to b considered a world class player must possess at least 2 out of this three areas I am abt to say 1...d player must b consistent in terms of performance on and off d field in a well known league,(especially d top 5ive leagues we have) 2...d player MUST HAVE at least some few personal known awards/accolades whether in his club team,league or national awards yearly and also team trophy(ies) in his cabinet to show for his consistency(performance) 3....d player must at least always make d 1st -40 ballon d'or /FIFA player of d year nomination list, or d 1st- 10 continental player of d year award nomination list YEARLY; dis is a sign dt u re reckoned with in d world of football ...... So any player dt doesn't possess @ least 2 out of d 3 aforementioned point to me,its not a world class player yet as far as I am concerned..dts y I only considered "MIKEL" has d only WORLD CLASS PLAYER WE HAD IN SUPER EAGLES during his time. ![]() 1 Like |
