The chief coach of the National Senior team of Nigeria Eric Chelle will cut the players from his preliminary players list for the next World Cup Rwanda and South Africa classifiers respectively, reports Owngoalnigeria.com.
Chelle will make the decision after the game round this weekend in Europe with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), pressing so that the coach names a list of 25 men against their desire for a list of 23 men.
NFF feels that the fact that some players are walking along the thin suspension line could see some players lose the second crucial game of the series to the leaders of Grupo South Africa.
It is expected that a commitment to the number will be reached, and if, as expected, the coach decides to pay attention to the NFF Council. The players listed below are those expected to make the final cut.
