"We have some new players perhaps can be scouted, some of them are playing in Germany, we have one in Union Berlin (Taiwo Awoniyi) which is a good team this season," Rohr said to Super Eagles TV .
"We have other players who are playing in France, Lorient (Terem Moffi). We have players who are doing well in Eastern Europe, also Austria, Czechoslovakia and we know all what they are doing.
"And each Monday we have our meeting by video conference with my staff and analyzer to see what exactly they did in the weekend."
