Former Nigeria defender, Ifeanyi Udeze, has said he would want to see the return of Obafemi Martins and Emmanuel Amunike back to the Super Eagles to beef up the squad ahead of next year’s world cup.

The former PAOK of Greece player said the return of the duo to the squad will strengthen the attacking department of the team.

“The squad is solid, but I won’t mind to have Obafemi Martins and Emmanuel Emenike back in the team, to support Odion Ighalo who is undoubtedly our best striker at the moment.

“We need these experienced guys at the World Cup. We should have a blend of youth and experience in the team for the World Cup,” he said.

He also called on coach Gernot Rhor and his crew to look inward and discover a good backup for defender, Elderson Echiejile.

“I will not single out any left-back to be added to the team because we do not have so many around,” Udeze told Completesportsnigeria.com.

“However, I feel the coaches should monitor the Nigeria Professional Football League and invite the best performing left-back  so that he can play in friendlies ahead of the World Cup.
