INVITES MIKEL OBI, IWOBI, IGHALO
Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr,
is seeking to parade his very best against Argentina, in a high-profile
friendly game on November 14 in Russia.
Argentina has already released the
names of foreign-based players who are expected to play in the game.
Top stars like Lionel Messi, Angel Di
Maria, Sergio Aguero, Paulo Dyabala and Mauro Icardi all listed by coach Jorge
Sampaoli.
Rohr is also prepared to line up his
key men in the encounter, which will be played four days after their dead
rubber 2018 World Cup qualifier in Algeria.
“It’s going to be an enlarged squad
of players, but barring injuries or failure to recover on time, all top names
are going to be in the list of players, because the game against Argentina will
help us see how far we have come,” a backroom staff of the team told
Owngoalnigeria.com.
“The likes of Victor Moses, Leon
Balogun, John Obi Mikel, Kelechi Iheanacho, Alex Iwobi, Ola Aina among others
are going to be in the team for the game. Some will play against Algeria while
some are going to be for the Argentina game,” he added.
