Oshoala arrival excites Omagemi

By Daily Sports on April 5, 2016

Head coach of Nigeria's senior women national team Florence Omagbemi has expressed delight following the arrival of Arsenal Ladies forward Asisat Oshoala for Friday’s African Women Cup of Nations qualifier against Senegal. 

The 41-year-old insists her side will not rely on individual talents but team quality and has expressed satisfaction with the class and quality of both foreign and home based players in camp.

"We are not expecting any foreign player except for Oshoala who is currently in the country," Omagbemi said

"We have almost everyone in camp and Oshoala is the only one we are expecting. We already settled the issues with those who are not in camp now. 

"She (Oshoala) is in Nigeria already and will join us in camp in couple of minutes. She is been expected just like any other one in the team. 

"We already had those from Sweden, France and others in camp. So It's all about team work as we all have a goal to achieve. I'm happy she is part of it," she concluded.

In the same vein, the new Arsenal Ladies forward has confirmed her arrival in the country and eager to team up with her teammates at their Abuja camp.

"Yes, I'm around and currently heading to camp" Oshoala told Goal in a brief telephone chat.

The reigning champions will have their final training session on Monday evening before departing the country to Dakar on Tuesday.

The African giants will face the Senegalese opponents on Friday, April 8 at the Stade Léopold Sédar Senghor in Dakar.

The 10th edition of the continental showpiece will be held in Cameroon with eight teams to play in the tournament scheduled to hold from November 19 to December 3. (goal.com)
