Unusual Grace – Super Eagles Star Mock Inclusion of Iheanacho in squad for Unity Cup, Russia Friendly

The controversial decision to include Kelechi Iheanacho in the Super Eagles team for the next Unity Cup and the friendly game against Russia has attracted many reactions, reports Owngoalnigeria.com.

Iheanacho has had problems for time and goals this season. He joined the LaLiga Sevilla team before the start of the season, but six months later he was sent to the Middlesbrough English championship with its sports director Victor Orta who describes his signature as an error.

In Middlesbrough fought for the regular game time playing only 15 games with a goal and an assistance while they lost a space in the promotion game. They communicated that they will not take the option to make their treatment permanent.

Despite all his struggles, he was somehow appointed in the Super Eagles team for both commitments, and a player who was not part of the team has given his opinion on the decision to include Iheanacho.

“It is not the first time this happens. I remember that it was included in the AFCon squad while it was injured and without a game in a month. It is a case of unusual grace. Something like someone like me does not have, but it is a total mockery of what the football of the national team that rewards the performance at the club level is,” he told Owngoalnigeria.com.
