A former Super Eagles defender Taribo West has pleaded with Stephen Keshi to recall team captain Joseph Yobo as Nigeria prepare for their last Group F World Cup qualifying match against the Flames of Malawi.
Yobo, who was a...
key player for Fenerbahce in last season’s campaign in Turkey, last played for Nigeria at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa where he featured as a substitute in most of the games. He has since been left out of the team as Nigeria played all their matches in the qualifying rounds for Brazil 2014.
The former Everton defender recently lashed out at Keshi for leaving him out of the team while the coach has insisted that Yobo remains the team captain. But Taribo is not convinced that Keshi has Yobo in his plans, a situation, he said cost Nigeria an impressive outing at the FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil. The former Inter Milan and AC Milan defender said the Super Eagles defence lacked quality at the Brazil event and could be worse at future games, insisting that the team missed Yobo at the competition.
