The transfer wrangling between Rangers International of Enugu and
Warri Wolves on Super Eagles star, Sunday Mba may scuttle the player’s
future in the national team. Eagles’Coach, Stephen Keshi, might be
forced to drop AFCON star if his transfer saga rages on.
Top Nigeria league clubs: Warri Wolves and Rangers are at
logger-heads over the ownership of one of the biggest revelations of the
recent Nations Cup in South Africa. Last week, a committee of the
Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) asked the two clubs to reach an
agreement on the player within a week. Now, Keshi has warned that he may
axe the player if his club future is not sorted out soon.
“I may be forced to drop Mba from the team if his transfer issues are
not sorted out. If by our next game, they have not resolved the
problem, I may not invite him,” Keshi said . The Eagles’ handler also
explained that he was forced to call up as many as 15 foreign-based pros
for the Kenya match because the local league has just kicked off.
“I invited 15 foreign-based players because the Nigeria league is
just starting,” he disclosed. “The foreign-based players have been
regular at their clubs and as such, their fitness level is very high.
Most of our local boys are rusty, but we see how it goes in our training
camp.”
