F/Eagles Captain 'Vanishes' From U-23 Camp

Flying Eagles captain Musa Muhammed has left the camp of the Nigeria
U23s in Abuja without informing coach Samson Siasia or any other
official of the team.

"Musa has left the camp without telling anybody of his where about,"
Siasia told media in Abuja when asked about the skillful right back.

"But I can assure you that there is no cause for alarm because we have
enough players that can deliver the goods here. The boys just need to
play to instructions in the return leg in Lusaka and we will pick the
All Africa Games ticket, I am confident of this," he said.

It was also gathered that the Flying Eagles skipper allegedly left for
Germany on Friday night in the company of his agent cum manager, Abbah
Mohammed, who once managed former Golden Eaglets striker, Christantus
Macaulay, to seal a deal with an unknown club.

The source also frowned at the way the player left the camp after
being officially released by the Nigeria Football Federation to join
the U23 national team together with four players of the Flying Eagles
namely Mustapha Abdullahi, Taiwo Awoniyi, Benard Bulbwa and goalkeeper
Dele Alampasu.

The other four players have been dazzling at training while Siasia,
despite trying to hide it, was very disappointed with the player for
not consulting him before making the trip.

Sources in the Dream Team camp also disclosed that the coach had taken
huge interest in the defender and had already tipped him to man the
right back position for the team in Lusaka because of his productive
display and his good crosses.

But the coach has now given the player up till today to show up in
camp or forget about being a member of the team.

Musa Abdullahi was one of the early arrivals to the Dream Team when
the five Flying Eagles players were drafted into the U-23 side.
