Super Eagles boss Oliseh looking forward to first game in charge


Super Eagles boss Oliseh looking forward to first game in charge


Super Eagles gaffer, Sunday Oliseh ahead of his first game as Super Eagles handler has expressed utmost optimism on his chances of starting on a good note.

Oliseh has been working with the home-based players for the last two weeks and has been joined by the overseas based lads, and says he is optimistic, but must see all the players to know how optimistic he should be ahead of the clash

“I’m optimistic,” Oliseh stated confidently. “We have to get everybody on ground to know how optimistic we should be but we are also realistic to know we have to get the train on track first, so gradually we’re starting.”

The 40-year old Ex-Super Eagles captain has already listed six out of the 23 invited home based players that will travel to Dar-es-Salaam for the 2017 AFCON qualifier game, with the overseas based counterparts.
Conspicuously missing from the six home based players listed is striker Gbolahan Salami, who couldn’t return on time with his international passport, having been permitted to travel to Lagos to retrieve it from the Norwegian embassy.
