Keshi orders Eagles to meet in London

Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has told his
Europe-based players that they must converge
in London on Sunday, as he will only travel
with the domestic league players from
Nigeria.
Most of Nigeria's foreign contingent have
returned home to spend time with their
families before a hectic summer that will see
them train in Europe, then USA ahead of the
World Cup.
Keshi says although the players have kept him
abreast of their whereabouts, he has made it
clear that London is the muster point.
“I have received calls from some of the
foreign-based players that they are in
Nigeria," Keshi told The Nation. "I have told
them in clear terms that our camp opens in
London by Sunday, and that we are not
travelling with any foreign players from here.
"We are only travelling to London with the
home-based players and the back room staff.
“The foreign-based players would meet us in
London, any one of them that comes back
home, he would also return to London after
attending to some of their family issues that
brought them here in Nigeria.”
Nigeria play Scotland on May 28 in the first of
three build up matches before their opening
World Cup game against Iran on June 16.
