There are some players in Super Eagles who are not good enough – Sports Minister

Nigeria’s Sports Minister, John Enoh, has questioned the desire and commitment of Super Eagles players, who were born abroad.

The Super Eagles faltered in their last two outings against South Africa and Benin Republic.

The commitment and hunger of some of the players, especially those born abroad was questioned afterwards by fans and pundits.

“We have in the Super Eagles about 90 per cent of players not born in Nigeria. Do they have the spirit, the fire of a Nigerian player born in Nigeria?,” the Sports Minister asked in an interview with Eagle7 FM.

“There are some players in the team who are not good enough for the Super Eagles

“We talk of the quality of the coach, but what of the quality of the players in the team?”
