Super Eagles
technical adviser, Gernot Rohr, has said that Goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama will
return to the national team if Nigeria qualifies for the 2018 FIFA World
Cup.
Rohr who
fielded questions from journalists said that he called Enyeama and convinced
him to return from retirement to the Super Eagles.
When asked if
the Super Eagles still need Enyeama owing to the goal performance of Carl, he
said, “Yes, I said it that I wanted Vincent Enyeama to return from retirement and
I called him and we spoke with him.
He will come back if we qualify for the
World Cup.”
“We need very good goalkeepers in the Eagles.
We have two local
goalkeepers whom I don’t know if they will fit in if Carl sustains an injury,
so I think we need two big goalkeepers. Of course for this moment, Carl is
number one.
We cannot change him, he will be number one for the next game,”
Rohr said. Recall that the former Super Eagles Goalkeeper had announced his
retirement from Nigeria’s senior football team in October last year.
Enyeama
who took to his Instagram page, ‘vinny
2908’, had said that he had served Nigeria his best while in the pitch and
decided to retire from active play with Eagles to focus on his club
career.
