BEVERLY HILLS, July 22, (THEWILL) – Former Super Eagles striker, Victor Agali, says the players in the Nigeria Professional Football League are not good enough for the Super Eagles.
THEWILL reports that Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr, has received lots of backlash for not featuring players in the local league since he assumed the position as coach in 2016.
However, Agali believes that the local league players are not Super Eagles material.
“It’s disheartening with the level of our local league considering what Nigeria has achieved globally in football,” Agali said in a radio interview.
“People must know that the national team is based on results and this is what everybody is looking forward to.
“Rohr cannot be coaching teams in the league, but what he needs to do is to attend matches and pencil down players who he feels can compete with those already in the team.
“He cannot just be inviting players who cannot match those already in the team.”
