The former coach and captain of the senior national team of Nigeria Sunday Oliseh has once again fired another salvo in the direction of the head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Oliseh who has not hidden his disapproval of the decision of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to engage the Malian made his point again in an interview on Channels television, monitored by our editorial team.
”I am totally against having that role not being handed over to a Nigerian because we have qualified Nigerians who can do that job,” he said.
When asked about the current situation of the Super Eagles who are having a crisis in midfield, Oliseh listed the players he brought into that position during his reign as coach in that same position.
“When you are talking of a defensive midfield role, I was the one who brought in the young man Wilfred Ndidi. It was at the same time I brought in Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho, and I gave them their first call-up because they had the quality to do it,” Oliseh said.
