Super Eagles manager, Stephen Keshi has said his side will not accommodate new players without an enhanced value in the World Cup squad.
Lately the names of captain, Joseph Yobo, Ikechukwu Uche, Taiye Taiwo, Osaze Odemwingie, among several others have been mentioned as possible comeback to the Super Eagles.
Keshi said it amounts to wishful thinking for anybody to believe he will bring back a player that is not better than the ones in his fold at the moment.
“It will be senseless to invite any new player who has nothing new or value higher to add to what I’ve at present in camp.
“Of course, I won’t indulge in such fruitless exercise no matter the trappings.
“I’ve indicated that new players will be brought in to strengthen the side but it will be players who are far better than the ones that toiled for the ticket.
“The World Cup is not a platform to try players but a showpiece for tested and experienced players.
“We’ll accommodate the best that will deliver the goods at the World Cup,” said the former Nigerian defender to supersport.com.
Super Eagles will on Friday, December 6 in Bahia, Brazil know their group opponents when the draw will be made for the 2014 Fifa World Cup in Brazil.
