Golden Eaglets Coach, Emmanuel Amunike had his job cut out for him on Sunday and Monday after more than 600 youngsters storm the team’s open camp in Abuja.

The former Super Eagles winger had decided to give new players a trial ahead of the team’s participation in the African cadet championship scheduled to hold in Niger Republic in 2015.

However, the turnout of players exceeded the expectation of the coach but he expressed delight at the enthusiasm shown by those that came for the screening exercise stating that the country is indeed blessed with budding football talents.

“It is good we are starting right away and today’s session has been very good because it gave us the opportunity to see some equally young talents. We knew all along that it is not going to be easy but hard work doesn’t kill anybody and I’m positive that the screening would throw up some fresh talents for the team,” Amunike said.

The screening exercise will continue for the rest of the week. The Golden Eaglets currently hold the FIFA U-17 title following the team’s heroics at the world cadet championship in the UAE in 2013.
