Watford of England forward Isacc Success was handed his maiden
call up by coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr, much to the
surprise of all. However sources close to the coach have revealed the reason
why the former Granada man was handed his first call up.
Success has been sparingly used by manager Walter Mazzari of
Watford this season, as the coach is gradually easing him into the demands of
English football.
Some Nigerians have joked that his call up was inspired by his
strong showing last weekend against Manchester United , where he made mincemeat
of highly rated defender Eric Bailly.
” It’s funny when Nigerians discuss issues , how can he be called
up because he dribbled Bailly? How funny?. His call up was based on uncertainty
over the fitness of Moses Simon, who is yet to fully recover from the groin
injury he picked up few weeks ago” the source said.
” He earned his spot in the team based on Ogenekaro Etebo’s
absence plus the Simon’s case I talked about earlier. You can’t doubt his
talent. He will add pace, strength and experience to our strike force.
” You need to watch him at Granada. He has been unfortunate not to
have been called up in the past. This is his time to show Nigerians what made
Watford splash big on him in the summer.”
