Former Nigerian international Ifeanyi Udeze has advised Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo to play consistently at CFR Cluj if he wants to make a return to the senior national team.
Omeruo recently signed for the Romanian club on a free transfer as part of their summer recruitment drive. Udeze, in a chat with Footy Africa, stated that Omeruo remains a top defender but needs to show more consistency with his game at CFR Cluj.
“Whether we like it or not, he is someone we need. He gives his all whenever the plays. His mentality is top-notch. He is exactly the kind of player we need in the Super Eagles,” Udeze said. “What he needs to do to get back into the national set-up is to be consistent at his club, be a starter, and the rest will follow.” Udeze’s comments highlight the importance of consistency in football, especially for players looking to make a return to the national team.
Udeze’s advice to Omeruo is clear: he needs to focus on playing regular football with his new club, improve his physical condition, and see how he can contribute to the team’s success.
“He is still an important player for us, but he needs to start playing regular football with his new club, improve his physical condition, and see how he can come in and help us — if the Super Eagles manager extends him an invitation,” Udeze added. This advice is crucial for Omeruo as he looks to establish himself at CFR Cluj and potentially make a return to the Super Eagles.
The move to CFR Cluj presents an opportunity for Omeruo to revive his career and prove himself in a new league. With Udeze’s guidance, Omeruo will be expected to take his game to the next level and demonstrate his value to the team. Consistency will be key, and Omeruo will need to work hard to establish himself as a regular starter and make a significant impact on the pitch.
As Omeruo settles into his new club, the expectations will be high, and his performance will be closely watched by fans and coaches alike. Udeze’s comments serve as a reminder of the importance of consistency and hard work in football, and Omeruo will need to put in the effort to achieve his goals and make a successful return to the Super Eagles.
The Super Eagles will be keeping a close eye on Omeruo’s progress at CFR Cluj, and his consistent performances will be crucial in determining his chances of making a return to the national team. With Udeze’s advice in mind, Omeruo will need to focus on his game and work towards establishing himself as one of the top defenders in the league.
