Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle is excited at the prospect of having Millwall winger Femi Azeez in his team following his decision to pledge his international future to Nigeria, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
Azeez ended the season as one of the best players in the English Championship, with his 11 goals and 8 assists key to Millwall booking a promotion playoff spot by finishing third, narrowly missing out on automatic promotion with just a point.
Chelle sounded out the wingers representative and got a favourable response, and the 24 year old is now expected to be in the Super Eagles team for their upcoming friendly engagements after missing out on the world cup.
The fact that he is two footed and can play in any role in attack has really impressed Chelle , who is said to be excited at the having him in his setup which lacks a player like that.
Already he is tipped to be snapped up by a team in the English Premier League with Brentford, Bournemouth, Leeds United and Aston Villa listed among his admirers.
A move will no doubt be on the cards if Millwall fail to pick the remaining one slot to gain promotion to the English apex league.
