Nathan Tella Hopes to Return to Super Eagles After Champions League
Bayer Leverkusen winger Nathan Tella is hoping to return to the Super Eagles squad after being left out since his debut in 2023.
The 25-year-old made his first appearance for Nigeria in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Zimbabwe but hasn’t received a call-up since.
Speaking to Oma Sports, the former Southampton player made it clear that he’s not the type to demand a national team spot. Instead, he believes in proving himself through hard work.
“This is not for me to decide. I’ve never been one to say ‘I should be called up.’ I just focus on working hard and earning my chances,” Tella said.
With Eric Chelle now in charge of the Super Eagles, Tella remains hopeful that his performances will earn him another opportunity to represent Nigeria.
“If the new coach thinks I’ve done enough, I’d be happy to accept the call. If not, that means I have to work harder,” he added.
Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen spoke about his childhood days and the difficult experiences he faced growing up.
He revealed that his mother was the breadwinner of the family and that her death deeply affected them.
“My mom was the breadwinner of the family, but she and my dad never had issues because of it.”
He shared that when his mother passed away, they not only missed her emotionally but also struggled financially without her support.
Fans related to his story and applauded how he has now risen to greatness.
It has been revealed that Ruben Amorim’s possible next step could be taking over as Benfica’s manager, replacing José Mourinho at S.L. Benfica.
It can be recalled that the manager was released from Manchester United F.C. in January and has since been seeking his next step.
He has now emerged as the top candidate to become Benfica’s new manager.
Rio Ferdinand has reacted to talks surrounding Xabi Alonso and the managerial position at Real Madrid.
It was reported that Xabi Alonso had signed a contract with the club to become their manager.
Ferdinand then shared his thoughts on the move “I’m genuinely surprised he’s taken that position. I’m not suggesting he’s the wrong choice.
“The reason I’m taken aback by his decision is that I thought he would have been patient enough to see how the Arne Slot situation at Liverpool would unfold.”
He explained that Alonso could have possibly become Liverpool manager with enough time and also spoke about Alonso’s love for the club.
