Former Golden Eaglets coach, John Obuh, has blamed the Nigeria Football Federation for the continuous exclusion of local players from the Super Eagles, The PUNCH reports.
“Coaches work under a contract and their comments depend on what is in their contracts. As far as I am concerned, what Peseiro said was professional language,” Obuh said.
“The late Stephen Keshi did it and he succeeded, but that doesn’t mean another person will achieve that, and as long as it is not included in his contract, we should allow him to work according to his contract. If we are no longer satisfied, then we bring in our local coaches to work with the Super Eagles. For now, they should allow him do his job.”
