CHANGE OF PLAN: Flying Eagles trip to Germany has been Shifted


The Nigerian U20 team, the Flying Eagles may no longer be travelling to Germany today as earlier scheduled, according to SL10.ng
The Nigeria Football Federation had last week announced a training camp in Germany for
the Flying Eagles, where they are expected to finalize their preparations for the FIFA U20 World Cup in Canada.
But latest reports is that for some undisclosed reasons, the trip has been shifted to a later date.
If the team were to still travel today, no training arrangements will be made but a source in the team has told sl10.ng that due to some ‘administrative challenges’ about their trip, they will have their usual training session today in Abuja, starting from 4pm local time.
Nigeria will play in group E of the World Cup, same as Brazil, Hungary and North Korea, and have already submitted their provisional list of 35 players to World Football governing body FIFA.
Coach Manu Garba is still waiting on the likes of Kelechi Iheanacho, Isaac Success and Moses Simon, who are all yet to join the team, with Chidiebere Nwakali the only overseas based player to have joined.
It remains unclear when the team will eventually travel to Germany but it is believed they will eventually be in the European country as planned.
