U-23 Dream Team coach Samson Siasia wants to take Watford striker Odion Ighalo to the 2016 Summer Olympics as one of his three over-aged players .

Ighalo has scored 14 goals for high-flying Watford in the Premier League this season. The Olympic Games will hold from 3 to 20 August in Brazil.

“It is obvious that we will consider Odion because he is the only Super Eagles player playing and scoring goals in the Premier League,”Siasia told Sun Sports.

“Everybody is looking at him and he is good boy, gentle and discipline.

“I can tell you that if he is in good shape when we want to go for the tournament, he will of course be one of the players we want to pick.

“We need somebody like him to score for us.”
