Nigeria international defender Ola Aina says playing for the Super Eagles of Nigeria has in more ways than one had a huge impact in his career, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Aina represented England at different youth levels before switching to Nigeria in 2018., where he has gone on to pick 40 senior caps and have played in three major tournament. He is shaping up for the fourth which will be the 2025 AFCON in December.

Revisiting his decision, the 28 year old who is presently rated among the best right back in England this season, owing to his performances for Nottingham Forest says it’s a switch that has impacted his career positively.

“It means a lot. It’s a big honor to play for the Super Eagles. Every time I put the jersey or t-shirt on, it’s a great feeling — one that can’t really be matched. It’s really nice. I love playing for Nigeria, and hopefully, I can keep on playing for Nigeria for many more years”, he said in an interview with NBC Sports’ By Way of Africa series,

He reckons his move to Torino as the turning point of his career, which started with his stint at Chelsea where he progressed through the youth ranks and made sparse appearances for the senior team.

“Probably leaving England to play in Italy. I think that’s been the most pivotal for me because I was out of my comfort zone. I had to learn a different language and another way of life”, he concluded.

As the new head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle begin preparation for his first game in charge, which will be the world cup qualifiers in March there is the likelihood that he will be without at least five players of the team, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Chelle will begin his tour around Europe, where he will meet with some players of the team to explain his ideas and plans for the team when they regroup for the games against Rwanda and Zimbabwe receptively.

Some players will certainly not be in the mix per what we exclusively gathered with Sevilla forward Kelechi Iheanacho not in the plans of the coach , no thanks to his poor form for Sevilla where he has failed to nail down a starting spot since his move in the summer.

Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is currently out injured and might be sidelined for another one month , which could mean he doesn’t return to action until the first week of March, and it could probably be too short for him to be included in the squad for two games in four days.

The same situation is what Samuel Chukwueze of AC Milan is facing , with his return date pegged at 1st of February barring any setback but still walking a tight rope in his bid to be available for the game.

In defence Chelle will be hoping for some good fortunes on the injury front with the duo of Gabe Osho of Auxerre and Semi Ajayi of West Bromwich Albion are in a race to be fit for both games. The centre back duo are both out injured with Ajayi set to return in March after surgery while there is no timeline for the return of Osho.

Newly appointed head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle has started preparation for the team’s world cup qualifiers campaign against Rwanda and Zimbabwe respectively, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Yesterday he watched a test game between Nigeria Premier Football League side Sunshine Stars and the Nigerian B team, who are in camp in preparation for the CHAN tournament which has now been postponed to August by the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

During the course of the game won 3-2 by the Nigerian B team, he was particularly pleased with the performance of two players per what we exclusively gathered. Prior to now he already has the goalkeeper of Enyimba Henry Ozoemena in mind for a spot in the team.

The two players are Enugu Rangers center back Ifeanyi Onyebuchi and midfielder Jide Fatokun of Remo Stars. He made it known to the duo of Daniel Ogunmodede and Fidelis Ilechukwu that he has his eyes on the three players after watching them in the qualifiers against Ghana, shortly after he was appointed.

However he is not certain of their inclusion in his immediate team, but will continue to monitor their progress as the world cup qualifiers games isn’t the best avenue to try out new players given the Super Eagles placement in their group.

The 2019 Carabao Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester City will forever be remembered for an extraordinary moment involving Chelsea’s goalkeeper, Kepa Arrizabalaga. Feel free to try bets on 1xBet online on other weird things that can take place during English football matches.

In a game that had already stretched to penalties after a tense 120 minutes, a bizarre turn of events unfolded in the dying minutes of extra time, shocking 3 kinds of people:

If you like English football, you can try online bets on 1xBet on all its matches.

Struggling with cramps

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri, known for his animated demeanor, decided to substitute Kepa, who appeared to be struggling with cramps, for the experienced Willy Caballero. Caballero, a penalty specialist and a former Manchester City player, seemed a logical choice for the impending shootout. However, Kepa had other ideas. What is also a great idea is to visit the http://1xbet.co.ke/line/footballwebsite if you want to wager on great football matches too.

As the fourth official raised the substitution board, Kepa adamantly refused to leave the pitch. The Spaniard gestured repeatedly toward the bench, insisting he was fit to continue. This unprecedented act of defiance left Sarri fuming on the sidelines. The 1xBet site also features bets on teams that are coached by Sarri too.

The manager stormed down the tunnel in frustration, only to return moments later, visibly seething. The chaos left fans in Wembley Stadium and millions watching worldwide in disbelief.

A manager with his authority compromised

Kepa’s insubordination not only undermined Sarri’s authority but also raised questions about discipline and leadership within Chelsea’s ranks. At the 1xBet platform you will also be able to watchlive football streaming for uninterrupted viewing, where English football competitions can also be enjoyed.

To make matters worse, Kepa failed to deliver in the penalty shootout. Manchester City emerged victorious, lifting the trophy after a 4-3 shootout win. The incident overshadowed the game itself and dominated headlines in the aftermath.

Kepa later explained his refusal as a “misunderstanding,” claiming he was signaling his fitness to continue rather than disobeying his coach. Sarri echoed the explanation in public to save face, but the damage was done. The episode became symbolic of the tensions within Chelsea during Sarri’s tenure, which ended later in 2019. He was less than 18 months in charge of the Blues. There is a great live football streaming for enjoying uninterrupted viewing available at 1xBet, which covers all Premier League teams.

The newly appointed coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle says the team will aim to win all of their remaining six games in the world cup qualifiers which will see them make it to the tournament, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Chelle was unveiled as the new coach of the Super Eagles by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), and given the task of ensuring that the team qualify for the 2026 World Cup where they are presently 5th in their 6 team group.

Super Eagles are without a win in the four games they have played so far, and it has seen them fall to four points behind group leaders Rwanda who will be their next opponent when the qualifiers resumes in March.

They will return home from the game and take on Zimbabwe, and Chelle says a win in both games and the remaining of their games, starting from the away game to the league leaders is his immediate aim.

“The most important thing is not Eric Chelle or the players. The first goal is Nigeria, to qualify Nigeria. “We must win all six games. I’m focused on the next game, and after that, we will take it one step at a time.”

As part of what the team needs to do in order to make it to the world cup, he said having some rules in place that will keep the team focus will be key to achieving their aims in the qualifiers.

“You need to put in place strict rules around this team. We need to build a team with great spirit, motivate the players, talk to them like brothers, and impose our game everywhere”.

Head coach of high flying English Premier League (EPL) side Nottingham Forest Nuno Espirito Santo has dampen the hopes of Nigeria international defender Ola Aina getting a dream move to league champions Manchester City, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Aina will be out of contract in the summer and it has led to rumours of a possible move to the league champions, who are rebuilding the squad and have already announced that their undisputed starter at right back Kyle Walker will be leaving the club before the end of the January transfer window.

The Nigeria international has been one of the standout players this season in that role in the English Premier League, and it’s no surprise that he has been named among the likely targets of Pep Guardiola going into the summer rebuild.

However any potential move won’t be straightforward with Forest having the option of extending his deal for another year by triggering a clause in his contract, beyond that coach Nuno Espirito Santo also feels he has special qualities that his team needs to maintain their rise.

“He has been good. Very good. Last season was difficult for him, because he was distracted by a few physical issues. He still finished last season really well and this season he has been doing fantastically well for the team,” said Nuno when asked about Aina in his pre-match press conference ahead of yesterday’s game against Liverpool. “His performance levels are fantastic.”

“That (his ability to carry the ball out of defence) is one of the characteristics we like. But defensively he is also very solid,” added Nuno.

“He is a fantastic character,” Nuno said. “We have a good group of players — a very good group of people and characters. They enjoy being together and working together. Ola is very much one of those.”

One cap Nigeria international forward Josh Maja has suffered a huge setback in his bid to force his way back into the Super Eagles setup following the appointment of a new coach in Eric Chelle, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

The 26-year-old is second-highest scorer in the Championship this season, with 12 goals from 26 matches for West Brom, behind only Norwich City’s Borja Sainz. That run in front of goal will now be halted for a while.

West Brom announced that he will undergo after which a period of rehabilitation, which they say will take several weeks before he returns back to full match fitness. They say he is likely due back in March.

It means he has missed out on a chance to impress Chelle, who will likely be looking into options as backup for top striker Victor Osimhen when he rolls out his first set of call ups for the world cup qualifiers games against Rwanda and Zimbabwe receptively in March.

Victor Boniface who led the line in the absence of Osimhen during the qualifiers for the AFCON failed to make the most of it, leaving the door open for others to be given a chance.
