NFF’s Director of Technical, Dr. Emmanuel Ikpeme said on Thursday morning that the much-awaited list of foreign-based players will be
made known at a press conference at the Teslim Balogun Stadium on Saturday afternoon, after the NFF Technical Sub-Committee must have
deliberated on it at its meeting in Abuja on Friday.
“There is no misunderstanding as some people are trying to make out.
It is a matter of procedure. There is a Technical Committee and it has the responsibility to look at the list submitted by the Head Coach.
“The Technical Committee will deliberate on ths list on Friday and by Saturday, we can make it public. Of course, the home-based players are already known; they are already in camp. The curiousity is about whichforeign-based players will come for the match,” said Ikpeme.
The Super Eagles will fly to Monrovia on 6th September for the final 2013 African Cup of Nations qualifying fixture, first leg match against the Lone Star, billed for the Samuel Kanyon Doe Stadium on Saturday, 8th September.
