It's too much - Ex-Super Eagles star blasts Eric Chelle 39-Man provisional list for World Cup qualifiers

Udeze has blasted the new Super Eagles coach over his provisional list for the World Cup qualifiers.

What Udeze said

Udeze, who played for the Super Eagles during his active career, questioned the large number of players invited for the doubleheader, stating that it was not the right time to experiment.

Udeze believes the team should focus on a more streamlined squad rather than inviting a large number of players.

He also expressed surprise at including some players, stating that he never saw such a large invitation list during his time with the Super Eagles.

Reacting to the provisional list on Brila FM, Udeze said, "There are better ways to go about it, but 39 is too much. This is not the time to know everybody."

The Super Eagles are set to face Rwanda on March 21st and Zimbabwe on March 25th in their World Cup qualifying matches.
