NFF & Keshi In War Over 35 Man Provisional list For World Cup

As nigerians await the release of the much publicized super Eagles 35 man provisional world cup list,there are strong indications that the list will not be made public anytime soon as super Eagles manager Stephen Keshi is hell bent on holding the names penciled down to his chest contrary to the position of NFF technical sub committee .

Stephen Keshi who resently was queried by the NFF for attending a function organised by one of the national team sponsor without due approval from his employer and also embarking on his annual leave without authorisation says he has no intention of making the list public.

“I don’t know who told the world I was going to unveil the list of 35man for the world cup preparation,I’d rather keep it to my chest for now” said Keshi.


The national teams coach latest stance is sure to spark fresh round of crisis between him and NFF in an already looking frail relationship ahead of the world.

Recall that NFF technical committee chairman Barrister Chris Green said that the provisional list will go public soon as as the coach defends it before the technical committee in Abuja.
