Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr has explained why Genk forward Paul Onuachu was snubbed in the 24-man list of players for this month’s outings. Onuachu, who has been spectacular at his club with over 20 goals so far this season, was surprisingly named among the seven-man stand-by list by Rohr. Amid reactions from fans and other stakeholders in the country, Rohr has explained that he needed to see someone else play since he had already watched Onuachu play with the Eagles. Spain-based forward Sadiq Umar was instead handed a maiden call-up to the national team. He joins the rest of the squad to face Benin Republic and Lesotho in the matchdays five and six of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). “It is because I want to see somebody else,” Rohr told ESPN.
