Once both the Super Eagles and U-23 Eagles start serious camping later this month there may be no controversy over players whose names appeared for the two sides.


Assistant coach of the Super Eagles, Austin Eguvoen says that eventually the Super Eagles will give out some players to aid Samson Siasia's Olympic Games qualifying run but that would be after the camp has opened in Kenya.


We are all serving one country so it is possible some players will be moved from the Eagles to the Under-23 team but we will be the ones to decide on who goes,Eguavoen said.



I have already spoken to my boss about it and we agree that by the time we get to Kenya the picture will be a little bit clearer and at that point we will how we can help Siasia.

After a few days of training we will now know the players we do not need for the Uganda game and the eligible ones would be sent to the Olympic team.

Nigerians believe that some players like Onyekachi Apam, Chinedu Ogbuke, Taiye Taiwo, Obinna Nsofor and Mikel Obi should be in Samson Siasia's team but they must understand that the Super Eagles supercedes every other national team in Nigeria,Eguavoen said.




Eguavoen says that before the friendly match against Ghana at Brentford, Samson Siasia requested for Taiye Taiwo, Mikel Obi, Onyekachi Apam and Chinedu Ogbuke.

"Since our match was a friendly and they had an Olympic Games qualifier against Equatorial Guinea we agreed that his was a more important match so we had to concede some players to him. We are working together and in any way we can help each other we will.
