Queens Park Rangers Star Eze Tells NFF Boss : I Want To Be The Captain Of Nigeria

Nigeria Football Federation President Amaju Pinnick has assured Super Eagles fans that he's doing everything possible to make Queens Park Rangers young sensation Eberechi Eze commit his international future to Nigeria.


Eze trained with the Super Eagles before a cancelled friendly against Burkina Faso in March 2017 but since then his status has changed, having played seven friendly matches for England U20s.

And things will become more difficult for the Nigeria Football Federation in their attempt to lure the attacking midfielder if he goes ahead to make his competitive debut for the England U21 team this month as he has been handed a call-up for the Euro qualifier against Albania.

Pinnick is expected to travel to London in the coming weeks for talks with Eze and his camp and it is claimed that the player has informed the NFF boss he wants to captain the Super Eagles in future.

In an interview with Channels Television monitored by allnigeriasoccer.com on Monday morning, Pinnick provided an update on Eze, saying : ''I have been taking to him (Eze), I speak to him everyday, I speak to his father, I speak to everybody.

He's an excellent player, he loves this country that I can tell you.

''He is a young player, he wants to be given a bit of time but I talk to his dad, I talk to him, I'll meet them soon in London, we cannot allow such a talent to go.

''And he even told me jokingly, 'President I want to be the captain of Nigeria some day', I was so excited about that and said, 'Why not, you play like Jay-Jay, Jay-Jay was captain so you can be another captain'.

''He loves this country, I don't think we want to allow that talent to go''.

In 16 outings for Queens Park Rangers in the EFL Championship this season, Eze has been involved in 10 goals (6 goals, 4 assists).

Actually I never knew icon4s and Andrew were candidates to be voted too, I thought the two were picked automatically and the voting was to get a few others to join them in the parliament. It sounds funny some guys ( somehow, komkne,forgiveness et al) who have no clue what moves the initiator of this whole stuff has made to make this recognized outside this thread, are against having him in. I didn't understand the whole voting process and if the brain, sole organizer and financier of this award isnt in, then I don't see the need to continue with this, it is sure headed nowhere, Bkus I doubt anybody is gonna be as dedicated as Icons and sacrifice his time to get the plaques to the appropriate offices.


Hey guys if icons isn't in, then I ain't no party to this, my vote is null and avoid. I no be Una member so my vote shouldn't count.

forgiveness:
Keep quiet Mr. With all the football culture in so called regions, how many world class players have they produced?

Just accept who you are and move on.

Poor Angola! Ousted by S. Korea. Two African nations out, but two still in. Hopefully we'll see a Senegal - Nigeria final.

I'm starting to like Klopp

https://twitter.com/brfootball/status/1191503210017644544?s=09[/quote]He is a great coach. He calls Origi Liverpool legend even without seeing first team football. Btw did you notice the mention of Great players from Genk. De Bruyne and Ndidi. Yet people want us to believe Ndidi is a carpenter who doesn't know how to pass

komekn:
I disagree with you.

Sportilitica:
I would have thought we would be analysing our match tomorrow against holland. Who should start and who is to chop bench. What formation is needed etc...

andrewbaba44:
I am not saying he will bench anyone for now because it’s a January move

But stop judging by musa and nacho that he won’t do well

andrewbaba44:
Because musa and iheanacho are better than Dennis and they have hard time at Leicester doesn’t mean Dennis will have a hard time ,o common bro ,how do you watch your own football self ?

World class di María struggled at man united but a certain bang average Daniel James is doing fine

There is nothing like ready for such ,if a player doesn’t make the move how the world know if he is ready or not ?

As far as I am concerned Wesley moraes is not a better player than Dennis but has done quite well on the start of his Aston villa career, I am sure if he is Nigerian you would have said he is not ready for the Epl before his move

charlesemeka85:
Musa pushed 4 the move and Leicester on thier part made decent money from it

komekn:
Why do you think in the context of the EPL that Musa and KC are better than him.

andrewbaba44:
Lol

Even leicester city fans still love musa

Maddison 8.4

ChrisKels:
I expected u to know better. The tens was a present continuous one, not past. When that post was made, Ndidi and the whole Leicester team were having a bad day at the office. His rating improved after the two goals, from what it was before the goals and my submission

ChrisKels:
Ndidi is having a below average game

Can we rest now?
