Nigeria finally lose Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze to England
• Gets first call up for Euro 2024 qualifiers Nigeria’s poor attitude towards recruiting quality players of Nigerian descent, born and living overseas, into the national teams has again backfired. Yesterday, Crystal Palace midfielder, Eberechi Eze, who was first courted by former Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) President, Amaju Pinnick, in 2017, was called up by England senior national team, to feature in their EURO 2024 qualifiers. Eze was said to have declared himself available for an international friendly against Burkina Faso in London, but the game failed to hold.
