Former Super Eagles midfielder, Duke Udi believes Nigeria is overflowing with football talent, describing the Senior Men’s NT as a squad any manager would love to lead.

Udi expressed his admiration for the team, emphasizing that only Morocco and Senegal can match Nigeria’s quality on the continent.

Speaking on Brila FM’s “No Holds Barred”, Udi discussed the squad’s potential, noting that the team could almost function without a coach, showing just how blessed Nigeria is with talent.

“This current Super Eagles team can do without anybody. We have a strong team—it’s just about the coaches sitting down, building chemistry, and making the right selections.

“Even if a key player is missing, We have good players to win any game,” he said.

Udi further emphasized that discipline is the missing ingredient for the Super Eagles to reach their full potential.

“What we need is just discipline,” he stated. “Once discipline is established, any coach who comes in will thank God for this team.”

He added, “In the whole of Africa, aside from Senegal and Morocco, no team has our depth of talent.”

Udi concluded by saying that with such a skilled lineup, 75% of a coach’s job is already done.

“When you have quality players, it’s just a matter of putting things together and helping the team gel.”
