Agent Reveals Nigeria Federation Are Sweating To Secure Isaac Success Release

The Nigeria Football Federation are in a race against the clock to secure the release of Granada starlet Isaac Success for the important African Youth Championship qualifying fixture against Tanzania next weekend.

It had been reported that the 18 - year - old striker had been permitted by the Spanish side to feature in the game billed to be staged in Kaduna, but recent developments suggest otherwise.

Dominic Egbukwu, who handles the affairs of Isaac Success in Nigeria, explained to SL10.ng: :“The Nigerian Federation claimed to have sent an invitation letter to Granada for the release of Isaac Success but the Spanish club said it was not received, so another letter had to be sent. I called the NFF today (on Friday) and they said there is no reply from Granada yet.

'Success has already booked his ticket to travel to Nigeria this weekend but this must be authorized by Granada.”

Isaac Success has not defended the colours of Nigeria since he limped out injured after 32 minutes in the group game against Sweden at the Fifa Under 17s last October.
