Exclusive: Keshi Includes Imoh Ezekiel, Ramon Azeez And Leon Balogun In Provisional Squad List
Published: April 23, 2014Nigeria gaffer Stephen Keshi and the Technical Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation are keeping everyone in suspense regarding the release of the provisional World Cup roster.
It was assumed that the squad list would have been unveiled to the media and public on Tuesday but it is being speculated now that it has been shelved until next week.
Indeed, the African Cup of Nations winning manager has submitted a 38 - man list to the eggheads at the Glass House but this has to be approved by the Technical Committee after analyzing the pros and cons of taking each nominated player to the mundial.
Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that the likes of Imoh Ezekiel (Standard Liege), recuperating Fortuna Düsseldorf stopper Leon Balogun, Ramon Azeez of Almeria and Cercle Brugge striker Michael Uchebo have a second chance to impress Keshi in the build up to the World Cup.
The four players who made their international debut against Mexico last month have been included in the provisional squad.
A provisional roster is expected to be sent to Fifa on May 10, with 8 of the players erased from the list earlier sent to the Nigeria Federation.
