Nigeria to play international football friendly with DR Congo
APA - Lagos (Nigeria) The Chairman of the technical committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Chief Taiwo Ogunjobi, says Nigeria will play an international friendly on March 3 with DR Congo instead of Paraguay, as was planned.
The NFF had earlier announced that the Super Eagles would meet Paraguay on March 3 in observance of the Worldwide International Friendly Day fixed by FIFA, the world football governing body.
Ogunjobi told journalists on Monday in Abuja that the NFF decided to arrange a match with DR Congo following Paraguayan Football Federation’s claim that it was not aware of any arrangement for a friendly with Nigeria’s Super Eagles on March 3.
“We will now play against Congo and we will prosecute the match with both our home-based players and about five or six of our hitherto unknown players in Europe,” he said.
Ogunjobi said that the new technical adviser soon to be employed would also arrange friendly matches for the Super Eagles.
He said the NFF technical committee was planning to set up a camp in London for the team where the players would stay together and play friendlies with European club sides.
“We know that 75 to 80 percent of our players are in Europe, and setting up this camp will enable us to easily assess them and gather them to play together,” he said.
He said that the Eagles would get to the semi-final stage of the 2010 FIFA World Cup with the calibre of technical adviser to be employed from those to be interviewed.
“We have interviewed Bruno Metsu and Ratomir Djukovic, who worked with and took Senegal and Ghana to the 2002 and 2006 World Cups respectively.
“These are coaches who have worked with African teams and have done well ; they are already conversant with African football and are good,” Ogunjobi said.
He said the NFF was still expecting Glenn Hoddle from England and Lars Lagerback from Sweden this week, adding that they would be interviewed as soon as they arrived.
“After interviewing them, we will write our report and send it to the NFF Executive Committee and latest by February 28, Nigerians will know who will be in charge of the Super Eagles,” Ogunjobi said.
