As players continue to push for a spot in the senior national team of Nigeria following the permanent appointment of Jose Peseiro as coach, some players who fell out of favour are also in contention.
Peseiro will in the coming days release his first full list of players for two proposed friendly games against Algeria and Portugal respectively and some new players are expected to be a part of the team.
Players who are regulars at their clubs will no doubt be the ones in contention for a call up with the European season just starting in several top leagues. One player who has been a regular is Isaac Success of Udinese.
Success was once again in the starting lineup for his team in the Serie A, where they picked up what can be described as the first shock result of the season by beating Roma 4-0.
The former Watford record signing made his international debut under former coach Gernot Rohr but never truly stamped his feet in the team with the German coach said to be unimpressed with his attitude, commitment and work rate.
” I am due for a recall. This time around I am going to give my all to remain in the team especially with my present form. We (Nigeria) have a new coach and I see a fresh beginning not just for me but several others who have not been a part of the team for a while”, he told OwnGoalNigeria.com.
