Chelsea striker part of Oliseh’s plan



New Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh did not travel to London as a tourist, contrary to statements from uninformed sources.
Indeed, the former Nigeria skipper was at Wembley on Sunday to run the rule over two important players Obi Mikel and Victor Moses and there was also the possibility of observing new kid on the block Alex Iwobi.
Of the three aforementioned Nigerian players , only Victor Moses was given a run – out in the final 8 minutes when Chelsea faced Arsenal in the Community Shield.
And Oliseh has confirmed that the former Wigan and Crystal Palace winger is in his plans ahead of next month’s African Cup of Nations qualifying fixture against Tanzania.[post_ad]
“Very constructive meeting with Chelsea & Super Eagles’ Victor Moses. The team building continues,” Sunday Oliseh said on social media.
The Chelsea number 20 has not put on the jersey of the Super Eagles since their 2 – 0 loss to France at the 2014 World Cup.
