Samson Siasia has warned that it will be tough to clinch a ticket to the 2016 Olympics Games in Rio de Janeiro.
Nigeria’s U-23 team will play the winner between Congo and Ghana, for a place in the final qualifying tournament, which holds in Senegal between November 28 and December 12 this year.
“The Olympics ticket is not child’s play. I have been there before and I know it’s not easy to win the Olympics ticket,” Siasia told Goal.
“But with hard work, determination and the full support of everybody, I know we have the materials that will win the ticket and also go far in the competition”.
Siasia, who led Nigeria to silver at Beijing 2008, revealed that he has contacted some Europe-based players, who are eligible to play for the Dream Team.
