One player whose invitation to the senior national team of Nigeria ahead of games against Algeria and Argentina has to be on loan Manchester City midfielder Chidiebere Nwakali.
Nwakali who is presently out on loan to Sogndal of Norway was listed by the coach in the list of players for the games, and the player is presently with the team ahead tomorrow’s game against Algeria.
However the midfielder has not really imposed himself in training as he appears to be playing with lot of caution obviously afraid not to make mistakes, which has rob him of what many know him for.
His traditional long range passes and tenacity in tackles are yet to be seen, but in one of their session his shot gave goalkeeper Ikechukwu Ezenwa a lot to worry although the goalkeeper saved the effort.
So far he hasn’t really light up the sessions, but considering this is hid first call up to the senior team, he will definitely get better because he is obviously talented.
