Chelsea's Omeruo Gets Advice From The Best Nigerian Defenders Taribo West & 'Gentle Giant'
Published: July 19, 2017
Chelsea defender Kenneth Omeruo made time out of his busy schedule to visit some of the Super Eagles Legends that represented the country at the recently concluded Star Sixes World Cup in London.
The Nigeria international has admitted that he got valuable advice from 1998 World Cup stars, defenders Uche Okechukwu (Gentle Giant) and Taribo West, and Daniel Amokachi.
Omeruo posted on social media : ''Last week I had the opportunity to have dinner with these Legends.. your advice and encouragements is something I won't forget.. @frenzziiibull #West #okechukwu 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾''
Omeruo has not traveled with the Chelsea first team for their tour of China and Singapore due to a visa hitch, and he's understood to be in talks with a couple of Turkish Super Lig clubs over a transfer.
Despite losing two group matches, Nigeria qualified for the quarterfinals of the Star Sixes tournament before losing to Spain in their fourth match.
