Brazil 2014: Keshi Recalls Haruna and Uche
Officials of the Super Eagles have revealed that Lukman Haruna and Ikechukwu Uche are to be recalled to the Super Eagles ahead of the World Cup in Brazil. Both players could also play in next month’s pre-World Cup friendly against Mexico in United States.
Dynamo Kiev midfielder Haruna has been superb for his Ukrainian club after a recent injury setback, while Villarreal striker Uche has scored 12 goals in La Liga. Uche, however, suffered a hamstring injury last week and may not play.
Haruna last played for Nigeria at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, while Uche has not been involved with the national team since the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations also in South Africa.
It was also gathered that several other players who were not part of the qualifiers for Brazil 2014, but have been doing well at their various clubs in Europe will also be considered by Stephen Keshi.
The Eagles will resume training camp by the end of the month ahead of the friendly against Mexico on March 5.
