Former Nigerian international, Christian Chukwu has advised Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro to have a mixture of players in the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) and foreign based players in the National team and also come and live in Nigeria if he wants to achieve positive result.

The former Euper eagles manager made this known on Sunday,  where he decried Peseiro’s failure to give the home based players the chance to prove their worth.

The 1980 Africa Cup of Nations winner also insisted that the Portuguese tactician should be made to live and work in Nigeria.

“Our coach should come and stay with us in Nigeria.” Chukwu who coached the Super Eagles from 2003 to 2006 told Complete Sports.

“We have a lot of talents in Nigeria, in our local league and when you don’t camp and train them and forget about this we have a match, we come on Thursday, they train on Friday, they play on Saturday and they disperse again. We don’t have a team,”

“Let’s come back home, all those playing overseas are good players. They have the opportunities, we have those players back home who are equally good but they don’t have that opportunity to go abroad and play and if you come here and discover them, let you be their manager and then expose them to the Europe people. We have players who are very good, better than the foreign-based players but they don’t have the opportunity.

“You have to come home and discover them and train them. I am not saying they should not be mixed with the foreign-based. Invite the foreign-based but give the home-based opportunity. They are the ones you can use to get anything you want to get.

“As far as I am concerned we don’t have a national team now because even our caches stay abroad, he comes with the players to come and play and travel again. He should come and reside here, let us work together, we are ready to help him with whatever he wants to achieve,” Chukwu added
