Oliseh considers Flying Eagles Musa, Iheanacho

Musa Mohammed - Looks set to soon make his Eagles debut under new coach Oliseh

A top team official informed AfricanFootball.com that Oliseh is rebuilding with the future in mind and as such he wants to start working immediately with Musa, Iheanacho as well as Moses Simon, who has already been capped by the Eagles.

“The top three Flying Eagles stars under consideration by the Eagles coach are Musa at rightback as well as Iheanacho and Moses Simon in attack,” the team official revealed.

“Oliseh already is very much abreast of the exploits with Moses Simon at Gent as he followed him last season.

“He has also followed Musa and Iheanacho when he was on the FIFA study group for the 2013 FIFA U17 World Cup, which Nigeria won in style in Abu Dhabi.”

Incidentally, Musa and Iheanacho were in Tanzania last year for a 2015 AYC qualifier, which they won home and away.

Iheanacho, 18, has continued in pres-season where he left off with Manchester City in the last close season with some sparkling displays for the top English Premier League outfit.

Musa has already settled down at his new Turkish club and looks set to enjoy first-team football sooner rather than later, while Moses Simon is a fixture at Gent, who recently won the Belgium Super Cup to add to their historic league title from last season.

Oliseh will name his foreign pros for the Tanzania match next month and they are expected to fly directly to the East African nation for the AFCON clash fixed for the weekend of September 4-6.
