Iheanacho, Alampasu, others out of World cup selection

As Nigerians await the provisional squad for the Brazil 2014 World Cup, Chief coach of the Nigeria Senior National Team, Stephen Keshi says the likes of Kelechi Iheanacho, Isaac Success, Dele Alampasu and  others have no chance of being selected for the sundial.

He stated that these players must add to their ranks and graduate to the senior level with time.

According to Keshi "The FIFA World Cup is too far for the U-17 players. If they were U-20s, perhaps, one could have given it a consideration.”
He told Brila FM in Lagos.

It could be recalled that Dele Alampasu was the only one who made it to the last CHAN tournament in South Africa earlier this year among his peers that shone at the U-17 at United Arab Emirates last year.
