Rohr Gives Criteria For Including Home Based Players In Super Eagles Squad

Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr has urged players in the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) to ensure they play more games if they hope to be part of the senior national team.

Rohr arrived in Nigeria at the weekend in preparation for the crucial 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against the Squirrels of Benin and Crocodile of Lesotho on March 22 and 30 respectively.

The German tactician who disclosed that he was privileged to watch some NPFL matches during his stay in France, promised to include a few of the domestic league players to the team once they keep playing regularly.

“I’m happy that we can watch the NPFL anywhere in the world, I saw some interesting NPFL matches when I was in France.

“I think the players need to play more games and my assistants have been monitoring the matches.

“If we see any players that can come up, there will be a chance for them.”
