Coach Siasia Set To Recall Enyeama & Emenike

As part of the major restructuring of the Super Eagles, interim coach Samson Siasia is set to recall Vincent Enyeama and Emmanuel Emenike to the national team.

The duo who left the national team under the leadership of Sunday Oliseh are set to be called back by the consortium of coaches set up by the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, after the resignation of the former coach on Friday.

Other members of the consortium set up by the NFF Include Emmanuel Amuneke, Salisu Yusuf and Aloy Agu. They have been tasked with delivering qualification for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

“It is an emergency assignment. If they (the NFF) say we should do the rescue job, we have to do it for the sake of Nigeria,” Siasia told newsmen in Abuja.

“We will go for the best legs. I mean players with commitment, to ensure that we qualify ahead of Egypt.

“We will look at the players we believe can help the team, including Vincent Enyeama and Emmanuel Emenike who retired from the team last year.

“The coaching crew will sit down and make up the list, and the Egyptians must fall as far as we are now in charge.”
