Eric Chelle has explained why more young players are being invited to the Super Eagles.
Speaking of the Super Eagles high-profile international friendly with Portugal next Wednesday, Chelle posited that young players in the team bring something different.
“We analyse our game and we try to put some players who can make the team improve because for me and for everybody it takes one detail to win a trophy,” Chelle told the Super Eagles media team.
“So we have to improve because I think we have to put some young players who can bring a new mentality, something new and it’s not only about a question of mentality because the group has the mentality to win but we need to put something fresh.
“Some players will come with lots of energy, they will bring something like they want to win, to improve and the national team can be this for them.”
