The fine form of Anglo-Nigerian duo Bright Osayi -Samuel and Ebere Eze has not gone unnoticed by coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Gernot Rohr , Owngoalnigeria.com understands.
They were both on target for the English Championship side in their 3-0 win over German side Union Berlin with Osayi-Samuel scoring the second goal while Eze scored the third and final goal from the spot.
According to reports gathered by our editorial team, coach Rohr has been monitoring the duo for a while with Eze even training with the Super Eagles during a training camp in London last year.
Nigeria will soon regroup for the AFCON 2019 Qualifiers tie against Seychelles, and one among the duo is likely to make the squad as Rohr is keen on rebuilding the team with young players after their first round exit at the World Cup.
” Most people don’t know how Rohr works. He has information on almost all Nigerian players doing well at their respective clubs. Eze even trained with us in London “, a member of the backroom of the team told Owngoalnigeria.com.
” I can’t say for now if they will make the team for the Seychelles game, maybe Eze could make it. It all depends on what Rohr think he can add to the team if called up”, he concluded.
