•••Tackle Cape Verde today
There is palpable tension in Super
Eagles camp in Faro, Portugal as
head Coach, Stephen Keshi
prepares to announce his final
23-man squad for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations campaign
that will get underway in South
Africa, January 19th.
The coach will name a list of 23
players who will wear the
national colours at the Afcon
2013 championship today. The media was awash yesterday
with various lists on the team
but Super Eagles Media Officer,
Ben Alaiya dismissed them as
“speculative.” He said, “Head Coach Stephen
Keshi said he has heard of a list
making the rounds in Nigeria but
urged soccer-loving Nigerians to
ignore the lists purportedly
issued by him. “We will give out the names of the
23 man squad on Wednesday. I
plead with Nigerians to be a little
bit patient with us because it’s a
difficult thing to do”.
