Nigerian winger, Chidera Ejuke, has opened up after missing out on a call-up to the latest Super Eagles squad announced by new head coach Eric Sekou Chelle.
Speaking in an interview, the Sevilla forward indicated that he is not worried, acknowledging the many talented players available for selection.
He is backing the players invited by the coach to win their next two games to increase their chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
“We have a lot of players in Nigeria, and believe me, at the end of the day it’s the coach’s decision, and he knows what he’s doing,” Ejuke said as quoted by Brila.
He added, “So, for me, if I get the opportunity to go there, I’ll always be happy to represent my country. I wish the boys the best and, obviously, I’ll be watching as well, and I hope they win the matches.”
Nigeria’s Super Eagles will take on Rwanda and Zimbabwe this month in two important games in the qualifiers for next year’s World Cup.
After missing the squad for the matches, Ejuke will hope to make it into the next squad.
