Algeria Begin Monitoring Nigerian Players, Rohr Tactics On Wednesday

New Algeria manager Georges Leekens will begin monitoring the Nigerian national team and the tactics usually employed by manager Gernot Rohr as from Wednesday morning.

Whilst the Nigerian Federation have announced the 24 players summoned for the World Cup qualifier in Uyo, Leekens will reveal his roster on Tuesday morning before the start of a press conference.

Le Buteur says the former Belgium and Tunisia coach will study the last three or four matches played by the Super Eagles to get an idea of the formation and playing style of the team.

Georges Leekens will carefully analyze Nigeria’s opener against Zambia in Ndola and highlight the weaknesses and strengths of the squad. 

He has penned a three - year contract with the Algerian Football Federation.
