Probably a mixup in ScoreNigeria's report on his parentage. His Father has always been reported as Nigerian and his mum, Togolese unless the Original report was wrong all along too. Lol

Whatever case it is, one of his parents is Nigerian for sure.

Papi85:
I thought the father is Nigerian from Benue state while the mom is Togolese?

I rate him gan. He has that bandit mindset I like in strikers.
TheSuperNerd:
Meanwhile the ScoreNigeria report on Gift Orban better be true. I need that lad in the Naija fold so I can finally drop the Dieudonne Logossou name. grin

In truth, Gift would be quite the addition to the attack. Article below...


EXCLUSIVE: Gift Orban cleared to play for Super Eagles

A senior official has exclusively told SCORENigeria that joint leading scorer in the Turkish Super Lig, Gift Orban, can now play for the Super Eagles.

“Gift is now eligible to play for the Super Eagles,” the official tersely informed SCORENigeria

The high-flying striker was first invited to the Super Eagles three years ago, but he eventually did not get to make his debut due to “some administrative issues” even though the NFF announced he was injured in training.

The striker was born to a Togolese father and a Nigerian mother.

Togo are interested in capping him, but the player himself has said he prefers to feature for the Super Eagles.

Gift Orban, who was born in Togo, was sensational for Belgian club Gent after proving himself in the Norwegian second division.

He then transferred to top French club Lyon, before he teamed up with German Bundesliga club Hoffenheim.

Last season, he played on loan in the Italian Serie A, before he again was loaned out to promoted Amedspor in the Turkish top league for this season.

He is currently joint top scorer of the Super Lig with seven goals and two assists same as Mohamed Salah and his club are top of the standings going into the international break.





My Footnote: Information on Orban's togo links show that while he was indeed listed as an invitee for a CHAN Qualifiers fixture as a teen academy prospect back in 2018, he did not make an appearance for Togo. He was an unused sub or matchday player. So I really hope this is sorted for good with no future blowbacks.

The guy should play for Togo, he could be another Adebayor for them. Not sure he can even make our team.

mostob:
Elder Kog, we shouldn't overflog this issue. Okoye making it to the camp on time doesn't affect our qualification chances especially with Stanley and Arthur in the team.
That is not the point,let's assume Okoye is our undisputed #1 goalkeeper and we are having an important WC qualifier, would his excuse not to report in camp be condoned?
And again if the other 2 goalkeepers have their own personal excuses to give,who will
then keep.
Or half of the team have their own personal reasons not to report to camp?

Okoye just want that no.1 shirt guaranteed for him before he can take the national team business serious.
He is afraid to compete with Nwabali,he need to prove to Chelle in training and real match situation that he is better than Nwabali.

gentlegiant95:
you're just hating on him and not being and not being factual. He's the best Nigerian keeper around right now; has been for a while now. Nwabali and brilliant in the same sentence? Same Nwabali that has football fans hearts in their mouth every other game? Okoye is miles ahead of Nwabali in every goalkeeping metric.
Others see one thing,
but all i see is sarcasm,should I tell them so?

The Super Eagles Starting XI.

This looks good, Chelle. Looks good.

Nwabali expectedly returns in goal.

Aina returns to RB role.

Bruno keeps place at LB.

Bassey-Ajayi CB pair continues.

Iwobi-Ndidi center midfield.

Chukwueze and Lookman forming the diamond with Iwobi and Ndidi.

Ndidi sits at the base of the diamond. Lookman at the tip of the diamond. Iwobi, left and Chukwueze, right.

Akor and Ilenikhena CF pair.

The qualification campaign in Africa is based on this principle: win your games at home and don't lose away. If you lose away from home, then you have to get a win away from home. All Nigeria needs to do is take care of business at home and not get beat away from home. Since this group is kind of weak, Nigeria is still expected to win away at Tanzania and Madagascar. Nigeria is still a clear favorite to win against Guinea-Bissau away, but a draw in that match is an acceptable result.
