Coach Stephen Keshi has granted team skipper,
Vincent Enyeama, leave of absence from the two games against Congo and South
Africa’s Bafana Bafana on September 10, because of pressing family issues.
“It’s better we excuse him, instead of bringing him down
here without him concentrating for the game. I have asked him to sort himself
out and he can join us in the future.
For now there is no replacement for him because there is
no time to do that” he declared.Meanwhile, Eagles officials have threatened to
report German side, Schalke 04 to world soccer governing body, FIFA if
Chinedu Ogbuke Obasi fails to come for the Nations Cup qualifiers.
Team Administrator, Dayo Enebi Achor, who has been
working round the clock to ensure that all invited players arrive on time for
the games revealed that the German side called to say they have submitted the
international passport of the player for the coming Champions League
hostilities, which may force the player to miss the games, as the passport will
not be released on time.
With five days to the game against Congo, officials are
angered by the attitude of the club and may report them to FIFA for appropriate
sanctions. The Super Eagles camp has continued to swell as Nosa Igiebor, Uche
Nwofor and Ramon Azeez have arrived Calabar and all had dinner with the team on
Monday evening. More Players were expected before night fall in Calabar.
