Super Eagles
chief coach Salisu Yusuf has revealed that he has listed out about 44 players
as the team gear up preparation for the 2018 CHAN Championship.
The Super
Eagles have been drawn to face winner of Togo vs Benin Republic in the qualifying
game for place in Kenya 2018 CHAN.
The two
legged qualifiers are expected to hold between August 11 and 20, 2017.
Salisu, who
is still mourning the demise of his mother Hajiya Binta Yusuf, said the
preparation for the competition will start after Eid el Fitr festival.
The former
Kano Pillars gaffer also disclosed that he will meet with his coaching crew
member to discuss about it before submitting their plans to the Nigeria
Football Federation (NFF).
The list,
according to him, will be trimmed down to the numbers that would be
accommodated for by the NFF.
“We are
already doing underground work but full preparation will start after the Eid el
Fitr festival. I will meet my colleagues to discuss about our programmes before
we submit our plans to the NFF. I have about 40 or 44 list with me already but
the list will be reduced once we know the numbers of players NFF can cater for.
There is nothing to worry about and everything will be all right when we start
the preparation,” Salisu disclosed to SportingLife.
