Former coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Samson Siasia has reacted to the list of invited players for the senior national team of Nigeria World Cup qualifiers playoff games against Ghana.

Interim technical adviser of the team Austine Eguavoen named 32 players with seven on standby for the game which will take place in Cape Coast and Abuja on the 25th and 29th of March respectively.

In the list fresh call up was handed to three new players in Ademola Lookman and Akinkumi Amoo while Emmanuel Dennis, Oghenekaro Etebo, Calvin Bassey, Shehu Abdullahi, Victor Osimhen and Odion Ighalo were handed a recall.

Reacting to the list Siasia faulted the invitation of several new players by way of fresh invitation to the team or recall after missing out on the Africa Cup of Nations where Nigeria crashed out in the round of 16.

“You need to play people that understand themselves if you bring new ones it becomes difficult for them to understand themselves and play the partner you want to play,” Siasia told Brila FM.

“For me it’s not the right decision to bring new players, you are better off with the ones you know already that have been playing together and understand themselves because you have three days to practice before you go to Ghana. So for me this is not the right list.”
