NFF officials can’t influence my selection, insists Rohr Nigeria

Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has said he would not allow officials of the Nigeria Football Federation to influence the choice of players to be invited to the national team.

NFF president, Amaju Pinnick, had on Monday said the Franco-German coach would be mandated to reside in Nigeria and monitor domestic league match before he would be handed a contract extension.But Rohr said he invited players based on merit, explaining that he was not bothered about the mood of officials when selecting his team.

Rohr said, “I know he sometimes has a different opinion like me but then, it is football. I never accept it to make a choice coming from the officials; my choice is the choice of sports arguments only, to take the best players.
