Chief Coach of the Super Eagles, Salisu Yusuf, has revealed that the
technical crew did a thorough job in the selection of players for the
African Nations Championship qualifier against either Benin or Togo
next month.
The Nigeria Football Federation released a list of 30 top players for
the qualifier, and Yusuf says the selection was based on merit.
According to the coach, the players were selected based on current
form, consistency and experience.
“All the players we selected, were picked on merit. We can’t have a
perfect list. WE joggled from over 45 in the initial list before we
arrived at this number. We will see how we can work with them and
bring out their best,” the former Kano Pillars gaffer told
AOIFootball.com.
Speaking further, Yusuf stated that the team is expected to start
camping on July 16th but the choice of camp venue is still being
worked on by the Nigeria Football Federation.
