Chima Chukwu Matured And Experienced Enough To Play For The Super Eagles

 By : Ent.AmeboJagaban

Daniel Chima Chukwu in Liga Warsaw of Poland Colours

Former Plateau United first choice Goalkeeper George Chika Chukwu has expressed his feelings, that the Nigeria Football Federation should invite FK Molde of Austria attacking forward Daniel Chima Chukwu to the Nigerian senior national team,

"He his matured and experienced enough to be part of the current set of players in the super eagles squad because most of the players invited are not invited on merit.


“Van Der Sar fondly called by many during his playing days, disclosed to Media in an exclusive interview in Kano after Kano Pillars versus FC Ifeanyi Ubah clash in Nigeria Professional Football League Match Day 15 played on Wednesday, which the Masu Gida won by 4-0.


"Look at the Super Eagles friendly games, the team need a very prolific and very skillful striker, who can take defenders on, dribbles effortlessly and score brilliant goals.

"The first friendly game against Poland in Wroclaw, the super eagles managed to score our lone goal via penalty, that is not the team that should be at the world cup" The game of football is dynamic in nature now and requires exceptional and intelligent players to acclimatize to the trend.

"The Nigeria Football Federation need to give room to other players who have experience, like 25 year old Chima Chukwu." He enthused.

"I so much believe in Chima, he is fast, strong and understand team play and if invited to the super eagles it will change and provide lasting solution to the team attacking department" He concluded.

“Chima Chukwu signed for FK Molde of Norway from Liga Warsaw of Poland at the beginning of the season and before his move away from Liga Warsaw, he helped the team to win the Polish Liga.

The Super Eagles will be slugging it out with DR Congo in Abuja on May 28 then will also clash with England on June 2 at Wembley before their final warm-up match against Czech Republic on June 6. The Super Eagles will kick off their Russia 2018 world cup against Croatia.
