Olympiakos Striker Ideye Honoured To Get Super Eagles Recall

Brown Ideye was delighted to be recalled to the Super Eagles for the upcoming international friendlies against Mali and Luxembourg.

The Olympiakos frontman is making a comeback to the national team after two and a half years, with his last appearance coming against Italy in a pre-World Cup friendly on November 18,2013.

“Honoured to have been called up to the Super Eagles Squad for the games against Mali and Luxembourg â�ª#‎SuperEaglesâ�¬ â�ª#‎Nigeriaâ�¬ â�ª#‎proudâ�¬ â�ª#‎thankyoulordâ�¬, ” Ideye wrote on his official Facebook page.

Ideye has not been totally outside the radar of the Nigeria coaches as he was called up for two friendlies against Uganda and South Africa in March 2015 but pulled out of the squad as a result of injury.

The 27-year-old has bagged 13 goals in all competitions this season and notched 7 assists.
