The NFF announced the squad list for our crucial World Cup qualifying double-header against Ghana including recalls for our superstar Victor Osimhen with Emmanuel Dennis, Leon Balogun, Abdullahi Shehu, Peter Etebo, Odion Ighalo & Calvin Bassey also being recalled to the squad after the Africa Cup of Nations. Akinkunmi Amoo & Ademola Lookman also received their 1st ever call-ups to the Super Eagles
I also ran through how our Super Eagles players performed in the top European leagues over the past week including Moses Simon scoring the penalty in a 4-2 penalties win after a 2-2 draw against Monaco to take Nantes into the French Cup final !
In Turkey, Anthony Nwakaeme continued his excellent form for Trabzonspor by scoring his 10th league goal of the season to open the scoring in Trabzonspor’s 1-1 draw against Fenerbahce as they maintained their grip on top spot. He now has 20 goal involvements for the season with 11 goals scored in all competitions & 9 assists.
In the Premier League, Kelechi Iheanacho came off the bench to assist Harvey Barnes in Leicester’s 1-0 win over Leeds over the weekend
In France, Terem Moffi was also on the scoresheet for Lorient in their 4-1 loss at home against Lyon in Ligue 1 while Cyriel Dessers came off the bench to score the equaliser for Feyenoord in their 1-1 draw at home to Groningen in the Dutch Eredivisie
