Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi
The
Nigeria Football Federation officials have said that Super Eagles coach
Stephen Keshi has not been able to reach Emmanuel Emenike for a while
now because the phone number he personally gave to the Keshi is no
longer functional. Egales media officer ben Alaiya said, “When Keshi
discovered that number was not going through, he called his national
team mate, Ahmed Musa, to help get Emenike’s new number but Musa said
that Emenike refused to give him his new phone numbers. That is why the
coach is stuck on this matter.”
Keshi added, “If you want to talk to your
player and he does not want to talk to you what then do you do. I think
if Emenike has personal issues against any member of the team, he
should come out and say so instead of whipping up public sentiments at a
time concentration should be on the game against Kenya in Calabar.”
Keshi had said last Wednesday during the
team’s weekly media meet that he has made several attempts to reach the
player to no avail. That was just before Emenike granted an interview to
a website alleging that he had been abandoned by the team’s crew and
the NFF.
