Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama has announced his retirement from international football. The former Super Eagles skipper took to Instagram to reveal his decision, though his decision did not come as a surprise after a major falling out with Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh on Tuesday night following the announcement of CSKA Moscow forward Ahmed Musa as the country’s new captain.
Enyeama, who wasn't ready to talk one-on-one with Oliseh without the NFF president told Brila Fm that he would make his decision after talking to Amaju Pinnick. Guess he has spoken to Pinnick then.
Announcing his retirement, he wrote:
Enyeama who had 101 caps for Nigeria had a fallout with coach Sunday Oliseh prior to his retirement."I have fought a good fight for more than 13years. I have finished my course, I have kept the faith and sang the anthem with passion. Henceforth, there is laid for me a crown which only GOD can reward me for my 13years of national services. God bless Nigeria. From henceforth I am no more the captain of the Nigerian senior football team. I am no more the goalie of the team. I am out of the team. I am no more available for international duties. I want to say thank you to every Nigerian fan and supporter world wide. Its been the most trying period of my life but I know that Nigerian are there for me and God is with me.God bless Nigeria. #Endofanera.
