The New Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr,
has lavished praises on the Chelsea of England Midfielder and captain of Super
Eagles Mikel John Obi, since he started working with him.
The German hailed the
Chelsea midfielder as a natural leader and made it clear he will remain the
team’s skipper.
“Mikel is a natural
leader,” Rohr said.
“His experience and
leadership is exceptional. I saw him play at the Olympics and I’m sure I want
him to continue as my captain. He spoke with me on the phone and he’s here
again when he should be resting from the rigours of the Olympics.”
Rohr officially takes charge of the Eagles this
weekend, when they play Tanzania in their final 2017 Africa Cup of Nations
qualifier in
