As many as five players dropped from the Nigeria U20 team ahead of the U20 World Youth Championship have been offered trial opportunities by clubs in Europe, Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively report.
Although they didn’t make the final list of players for the tournament, teams in Europe have seen enough in them and have lined up test games to run the rule on them before deciding on signing them or not.
Two of the players arrived Belgium yesterday for trails while another is already in France for trials since the start of the week and two of the players are in Austria while one is in Germany.
The fact that the players are in possession of a Schenghen visa made it easy for clubs to hand them trial chance as it takes off the worries and demands of a securing a visa for them.
Since announcing his 21 man list for the tournament coach Paul Aigbogun has also recommended some players who failed to make the cut to teams in Europe particularly coaches who were his course mate during his training programme.
