'Ronaldo' Gives His Word He Will Join Under 23 Squad

AS Trencin duo, Moses Simon and Kingsley Madu, are honoured to be invited to practice with the Olympic National Team by coach Samson Siasia, and will join the squad any moment from now.
 
Between them, the teenagers have racked up 23 appearances in the Slovakian Super Liga so far this season.
 
But it is ex-Ajax Amsterdam trialist Moses Simon, dubbed the Nigerian Ronaldo, that has caught the eyes of many, with several clubs in England and Holland believed to be monitoring his progress.
 
The good news for Samson Siasia is that the Slovakian League is on break for the next two months, meaning he will have a chance to run the rule over both players in the coming days.
 
''I am not sure when they will be joining, both of them are in Nigeria. They just returned to the country because of the winter break,'' a source close to the Nigeria youth internationals told SL10.ng.
 
''They are happy to be recognized by Samson Siasia, and will be joining the camp very soon.''
 
Primarily a winger, Moses Simon made the squad list for the 2013 FIFA Under 20 World Cup, but he did not make a single appearance for the Flying Eagles before they exited the tournament.
 
On the other hand, Kinglsey Madu was included in the starting lineup four times.

Moses Ajala Simon is a great player with incredible potential for his age and one wonders why he's still playing in a league as Slovakia. Haven watched his video on you tube and reading about his exploit in Ajax, l know he will turn out great for any club in Central Europe and I fact nigeria under Siasia in the Under 23 team.

NFF president Amaju Pinnick on Wednesday insisted football was the only winner after FIFA ruled he and his executive committee continue in office. World football governing body FIFA on Tuesday backed the majority decision of the NFF 2014 Electoral Appeals Committee, which upheld in its entirety, the NFF 2014 Elective Congress of 30th September, 2014, at which Pinnick and others were elected into the NFF executive committee for a four–year term. “There is no victor, no vanquished in this matter. Ours is one big, marvelous family and here, football is the winner, “ declared Pinnick. Pinnick therefore urged persons who feel aggrieved in any way concerning the recent crises in Nigeria football to bury the hatchet and join hands with the NFF executive committee and management in redefining football culture in Nigeria. “There is so much to do, and only few persons cannot do it. The support, prayers and contribution of everyone in the huge football sector is needed for this administration to be able to fulfill its mission and vision,” he enjoined. “I am pleading that people should forgive the NFF Executive Committee for any of our actions or inactions since coming on board, and let us jointly take Nigeria football to much higher heights.” The NFF boss also expressed appreciation to President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and other top government officials for the huge support that the new NFF administration has received since coming into office 72 days ago.

Manchester City have applied for a work permit for Nigeria youngster Kelechi Iheanacho. Iheanacho has yet to be capped at full international level by Nigeria but he has been capped by his country at U17 and U20 levels and City are most likely to use the special talent argument to get the Home office to grant Iheanacho the right to ply his trade in the UK. It was the same argument that helped Chelsea to give Mikel Obi a contract in 2006 even when by then he was not an established Nigeria international. “City have applied for a work permit for Kelechi this week,” one of the player’s representatives informed “We believe he will be granted the chance to play in England.” Iheanacho was the MVP of last year’s FIFA U17 World Cup, which Nigeria won in fine style with the forward finishing also as the second leading scorer of the tournament. Last week, he was called up by Nigeria U23 team with coach Samson Siasia admitting he is a big fan. He equally shone during City’s pre-season training tour of the United States of America, scoring a couple of goals with class and composure. Iheanacho turned 18 recently and has been training with Major League Soccer (MLS) side Colombus Crew. Earlier this year, City said they may loan out the starlet when he is 18 and can sign a pro deal, but recent reports suggest they may keep him at the Ittihad Stadium.
