Head coach of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has called on the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), to secure friendly matches against European teams.
Nigeria is already preparing for the 2018 World Cup in Russia and will take on Argentina in a high-profile friendly on November 14.
However, Rohr is keen to face teams from Europe, as there are usually two from the continent in each World Cup group.
“We will be playing friendly games against some European countries because, as you know, each group at the World Cup will have two teams from Europe so it is good to have a feel of what we are likely going to be coming up against at the competition.
“We will see who we get when the World Cup draws are made on December 1 but no harm in planning ahead,” Rohr said on Monday.
