Oliseh declares: 'I’m too big to be
bribed by players'
The new Nigeria coach has crushed insinuations
that he could be manipulated by agents and
footballers to field them in the national team
Jul 22, 2015 14:23:18
Nigeria coach Sunday Oliseh has
said that he would run an
honest administration in the
Super Eagles and would not fall
prey to monetary inducement
from players and players’
agents.
Many national team coaches have often been accused of
fielding players in exchange for cash and other gifts but
the former midfielder has dared to avoid the lure of easy
reward as he looks to build a fortified squad in his three-
year contract.
“Like I said earlier on, I will only invite players who merit
[being] in the national team by playing regular football in
top European and African leagues. I will call players who
deserve to play for Nigeria. There will be no place for
mediocrity in my team,” Oliseh was quoted as saying by
Complete Sports.
“I don’t want to believe that players and their agents
bribe coaches to make the national team, but if it is true
that it happens like the media has reported, I will say it is
most unfortunate.
“I will not condone that. I am even too big to be bribed by
any player. If it was so before, that era is gone because
only the best will play for the Eagles,” he said.
Oliseh will take charge of his first Nigeria game in
September when the Super Eagles take on Tanzania in Dar
es Salaam in a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying
match. |
