AS predicted by many, exciting Enyimba International midfielder, Kingsley Sokari alias Bobby has broken into the Super Eagles squad for the two remaining qualifiers against Congo and South Africa next week and this is official.
Before now, Assistant Coach, Dan ‘the Bull’ Amokachi had said the player is as exciting as former Super Eagles skipper, Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha.But he also put a caveat. “We must allow our boss, Stephen Keshi to make the final decision”.
Last Friday after the game against the Black Metoers of Ghana, Keshi included him for the remaining two games and Bobby is presently at the Bolton White Apartment with the rest of the stars from the Nigerian league.
Invited foreign based stars are expected to start trooping in from Sunday evening.
Meanwhile, Team Administrator, Dayo Enebi Achor, has said he believes in the ability of the present squad to nick one of the tickets in the group A of the Afcon qualifiers this weekend in Point Noir. “We have a strong technical crew, formidable players and solid backroom staff, coupled with a new NFF that is visionary and focused, I think with hardwork we can get the ticket” he declared.
