Super Eagles technical adviser Gernot Rohr has
sensationally revealed that former Nigeria captain Vincent
Enyeama who quit the Super Eagles last year will return to
the Super Eagles once the team has fought for, and clinched
the ticket to the Russia 2018 World cup.
Wolves of England goalkeeper Carl Ikeme has been
impressive since taking over the goalkeeping duties, keeping
a clean sheet against Tanzania and making three important
saves against Zambia. Rohr has said even though Ikeme has
been wonderful, Enyeama will still come back to the team.
'I've known him (Ikeme) before now. I have seen him
in his club, Wolverhampton Wanderers a second
division side in England. I like his approach to the
game, his concentration, calmness, attitude to
training and games.' Rohr told
CompleteSportsNigeria.
' He is a good goalkeeper and I must commend him
for his saves in Ndola. Carl kept us in the game by
pulling at least three great saves. He was the man of
the match against Zambia. Great guy. I said it that I
wanted Vincent Enyeama to return from retirement
and I called him and we spoke with him. He will
come back if we qualify for the World Cup. We need
very good goalkeepers in the Eagles.'
'We have two local goalkeepers whom I don't know if
they will fit in if Carl sustains an injury, so I think we
need two big goalkeepers. Of course for this
moment, Carl is number one. We cannot change him,
he will be number one for the next game
