Yobo, Uche May Join Eagles In Madagascar

Joseph Yobo and Ike Uche may join the Super Eagles in Madagascar as both players try to sort out moves from their current clubs.

Samson Siasia laid down a deadline of Tuesday (yesterday) for all players to arrive at the Super Eagles Transcorp Hilton Hotel lodgings, but defender Yobo and forward Uche have been given a little more time to sort out their future before the transfer window snaps shut on Wednesday.

Yobo is negotiating a move away from Everton, while Uche could also be on his way out Real Zaragoza.

“Its their future and that is very important so if they cannot finish on time, they will be excused to join us in Madagascar.” Siasia said.

Yesterday morning, 12 of the 13 players in camp trained at the Abuja National Stadium. Emmanuel Emenike was excused as he arrived just before the team departed to the stadium.

Striker Brown Ideye arrived at the hotel just as the squad got back from training.

Players In Camp:

John Mikel Obi, Victor Anichebe, Ahmed Musa, Fengor Ogude, Dele Adeleye, Joel Obi, Peter Utaka, Chinedu Obasi, Obinna Nsofor, Solomon Okoronkwo, Dele Aiyenugba, Emmanuel Emenike, Nosa Igiebor, Brown Ideye.
