Rohr Makes U-turn On The Invitation Of New Players To The Super Eagles

Super Eagles technical adviser, Gernot Rohr has revealed the possibility of inviting fresh players to play for the team when the next FIFA international break reopens.

The German tactician made this known on Thursday during a chat with Brila FM that was monitored by Soccernet.ng.

Rohr said that he won’t experiment with new players when the 2022 World Cup qualifiers begin next year but would be open to give them the chance during the international friendly games.

“With the next FIFA window, we will already be in the qualifiers for the (2022) World Cup, so it will not be the moment to try new things with players we have never seen before,” Rohr said on Brila FM.

“You never know what can happen, we will see because I think before the FIFA [World Cup] qualifiers, we would have perhaps a friendly, this is the moment to test new players.”
