WCQ: ‘NFF won’t interfere in Peseiro’s choice of goalkeeper’
Director of Communications, Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Ademola Olajire, on Thursday said the Federation would not influence the choice of goalkeeper for the Super Eagles in their next World Cup qualifying game.
Olajire said this in an interview with the Tracknews Media during the 10th Nigeria Pitch Awards media briefing in Lagos.
Super Eagles failed to beat Lesotho in their first 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier after a 1-1 Draw at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo on Thursday.
The Super Eagles in their second group match will fly to Butare in Rwanda to take on the Warriors of Zimbabwe on Sunday, Nov. 19.
Lending his voice to the underwhelming performances of the Super Eagles’ goalkeepers, Olajire said Peseiro was still in the best position to determine what was best for the team and not NFF.
“The choice of goalkeeper still boils down to the Super Eagles’ coach and not NFF, nobody has a say on who will man the post but Peseiro.
