Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh no pick Chelsea bench midfield master, Mikel Obi to play for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Tanzania. When them ask am why Mikel no dey Nigeria squad list, Oliseh say he call Mikel plenty times but he nor gree pick the call or even call am back.
According to Coachee;
“I went to England on a Thursday and Chelsea was just coming back. We had fixed our visit to coincide with the end of their tour before they played Arsenal. I contacted Obi Mikel, called him on several occasions with no reply; sent him an SMS with no reply, went to London where he plays in the same club with Victor Moses. I called Moses, the phone rang three times and he picked it up and I spoke with him. Moses came to the meeting but he (Mikel) didn’t come."
I left to Liverpool to meet the other player and I spent about six hours to go there and back but there was no response from Mikel until I returned here. Till now I have not spoken with Mikel. I think it was yesterday (Wednesday) that I saw a missed call, so at the moment I don’t know what the situation is. No player is special, every player is the same, every other player we contacted and spoke with have been invited them"All wetin e talk so na for the Media Parley wen dem hol for Abuja yesterday.
