[b]Musa, Eze Promise To Hit Flying Eagles Before
Deadline


Tottenham Hotspur youngster Musa Yahaya and FC Porto's Chidera Eze have promised to join up with the Flying Eagles squad by the January 15 deadline handed them.

“We have been following up on the release of the foreign pros called up for the African Youth Championship and so far the signals have been very encouraging,” said team secretary Auwal Aliyu Ibrahim.

“For instance, Musa Yahaya is off to Malaysia for an invitational tournament with the Spurs youth team and he has called to say he will join us as soon as he returns.

“Chidera Eze has also assured he will come in before the January 15 deadline set by the coach for all overseas-based players to report to the training camp in Kaduna.”

Sweden-based Taiwo Awoniyi and Musa Muhammed are so far the only pros now training with the AYC-bound squad.

The other foreign pros called up include Moses Simon, Kingsley Madu, Isaac Success, Kelechi Iheanacho and Chidiebere Nwakali.[/b]

[b]Alampasu Awaits To Conclude Talks With Real Oviedo

Nigeria youth international, Dele Alampasu, isfervently praying that coach Manu Garbaauthorizes him to cut short his training with theFlying Eagles in order to complete his move to Real Oviedo.

The Spanish Segunda División B side ran the rule over the glovesman late last year, but failed to reach an agreement with him before he traveled back to Nigeria.

The 18-year-old is on the verge of signing a four - year deal with the third - tier club, having impressed the technical crew during the first round of trials, according to one of his advisers, Dominic Egbukwu.

''We couldn't agree with Racing Genk, so he was invited to train with Real Oviedo in Spain,'' Dominic Egbukwu told SL10.ng.

''He did well in the trials and we are hoping he will sign a four-year contract when he returns to Spain to conclude discussions.

''Alampasu has his visa to Spain. He was supposed to travel this week but he has to wait for Manu Garba to clear him first.

''If he gets approval from the Flying Eagles coaches, he will leave next week.''

During the Christmas holidays, the Under 17 World Cup-winning custodian traveled to Benin City alongside Granada's Isaac Success, who lost his grandfather a day before he arrived Nigeria for,the short break.[/b]

[b]Success Hopes To Join Flying Eagles In Future

Granada striker, Isaac Success, has given hisword that he intends to join the Flying Eagles training camp if he's authorized by the powers that beat the Andalusian outfit.

The 18-year-old was shaken by the death of his beloved grandfather a day before he arrived the country from Spain for the Christmas holidays. And this contributed to his failure to rejoin the Granada squad ahead of their game with Córdoba next Monday.

''I am leaving tonight for Spain. I am trying to get over the loss of my grandfather, he was so close to me. He died a day before I came to Nigeria,'' Isaac Success said to SL10.ng.

''I have been in Nigeria since the 22nd of December. Burial preparations took over one week, so that's what delayed my trip to Spain.

''If I can't join the Flying Eagles before the African Youth Championship, I pray they qualify for the World Cup and I hope to be a part of the training camp before the tournament.

''It's a privilege to play for the national team. I want to meet my old friends and the new players that have been invited.''

Having broken into the Granada team this past summer, Isaac Success believes he has adjusted to the rigours of La Liga, and the teenager is confident that he will surpass last year's achievements.

''When I first joined Granada, Odion Ighalo was putting me through but he is no longer here. I am now being guided by a close friend who works at the club.

''I don't know what the future holds. This year, I will do well for the fans and everyone connected with Granada because I used the first part of the season to know everything about La Liga.

''Everything will be better in the second stanza. The players and the fans have supported me,'' Success concluded.

In 13 outings for Granada so far this season, the highly rated starlet has found the back of the net once, which came against Valencia last month. [/b]

[b] Granada To Fine Success Over Late Arrival

Flying Eagles striker, Isaac Success, has incurred the wrath of Spanish La-Liga side Granada who will reprimand him over his failure to arrive in Spain on time after the Christmas break.

Success was suppose to have arrived on Monday the 29th of December 2014 but as of Friday the 2nd of January 2014, he was yet to arrive in Spain from Nigeria, where he spent his holidays.

The situation has left the club furious as his late arrival might rule him out of Monday's La-Liga clash against Cordoba, with Granada needing to pick up all three points.

He will most likely be fined by the club on arrival but a close source to the player told SL10.ng that the 18-year-old missed his flight but should be in Spain on Saturday.

Set to turn 19 on the 7th of January, Success has forced his way into manager Joaquin Capparos' side despite scoring once, he earned top marks for his all round play in the 13 games he played before the break. [/b]

[b]Etebor Gets Flying Eagles Call Up


Flying Eagles Warri Wolves Oghenekaro Etebo Warri Wolves forward, Oghenekaro Etebo, is expected to join the camp of the Flying Eagles by Thursday after being called up by Coach Manu Garba to help beef up the team in preparation for the African Youth Championship (AYC ) in Senegal.

SL10.ng gathered uncertainty over some of the foreign professionals invited played a role in the coaches looking the way of the Wolves forward, who has also been with the team in past camping exercise during the qualifiers.

Etebo might play a role in Friday's friendly game against the football team of the NYSC if he arrives in camp as expected and he is also penciled down to take part in the Super four contest in Abuja, which the Flying Eagles have been invited to take part in.

The 19-year-old missed out on a chance to feature at the African Nations Championship in South Africa due to a trail opportunity with Serie A side, Udinese, which didn't go as planned no thanks to an injury he picked up during the trial.

He returned to Warri Wolves at the start of the just concluded season, but had an injury interrupted season hence he failed to meet up with his impressive goal tally of 12 goals in the previous season. [/b]

[b] Mu'aazam Included In Rijeka's Training Camp Squad

Flying Eagles striker, Alhassan Ibrahim, is one step closer to sealing a professional deal with Croatia side HNK Rijeka after being included in their winter training camp squad in Spain.

Popularly known as Mu'azam, his participation at the African Youth Championship has been thrown into further doubts, as he will be with Rijeka in Spain on the 19th of January where they are expected to spend two weeks, before returning to pursue their dream of winning the league in Croatia where they currently trail leaders Dinamo Zagreb by seven points.

Rijeka are poised to sell top striker Andreij Kramaric to Leicester City and they believe the Nigerian, who has been on trial the past two months, can make up for his sale when the league resumes, as he has been impressive in training although they are yet to offer him a professional deal.

SL10.ng learnt the club will offer him a two-year deal with an option of a further year after the training camp in Spain. [/b]

These guys should not hurt Iheanacho's career with their money wranglings.
