Nigeria Premier League now to begin February 21

By Daily Sports on January 12, 2016

There are now strong indications that the new Nigeria league season will kick off on February 21 after clubs kicked against a January 31 start.

The clubs rejected the January 31 kick-off because of cash crunch, while a cross section of players has insisted monies owed them are settled before the new season begins.

Already it has been proposed that Abuja will host the first Super 4 between January 20-24, while Uyo stage the second tournament between February 3-7.

The pre-season tournament will involve champions Enyimba, runners-up Warri Wolves, cup holders Akwa United and third-placed Nasarawa United.

The competition will prepare them for both the CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup.
