Former Nigeria international forward Victor Anichebe want the coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Gernot Rohr to consider handing the captain arm band to Wilfred Ndidi in the future.
Rohr has confirmed that Ahmed Musa won’t play any role in the Super Eagles upcoming AFCON 2022 qualifiers against Benin Republic and Lesotho respectively meaning William Troost Ekong will be captain of the team.
Anichebe however believed the coach Ndidi who isn’t among the three captains of the team as named by Gernot Rohr last year because of his on field abilities.
Reacting to a training picture posted by Ndidi on social media portal Instagram, the former Everton forward tagged him as future captain of the team while reacting to his comment “It’s an honor to represent Nigeria”.
“Goodluck my brother! Future captain”, he reacted. His comments was liked by several others but Ndidi’s path to the armband appears a bit bleak with the trio of Ahmed Musa, William Troost Ekong and Leon Balogun ahead of him in the hierarchy of the team.
