Five Players That Can Improve Super Eagles: Abraham, Tomori, Tosin, Torunarigha & Kevin
Here are five players that would improve the Super Eagles World cup-bound team.

Tammy Abraham : The desperate desire of the NFF to recruit the services of the Chelsea loanee explain so much the unflinching trust they had placed on him.

One of the revelations of the English Championship last season where he hit 23 goals in 41 games, he had carried his impeccable streak of form onto the current campaign, having already stuck twice in seven outings for his Swansea side and it is little wonder why The Three Lions would equally be keen to rope him in soon.

There is, however, not a plausible glut of goalscoring options to readily pick from for the Super Eagles and having a proven goal poacher like the youngster in the fold would make for a reasonable coup.

Tosin Adarabioyo : Adarabioyo had been on the books of Manchester City since he was five, and having turned out for the senior team in the  the FA Cup, League Cup and the UEFA champions league, the time is, perhaps right to give the Manchester-born defender a look in.

Tall, imposing and strong in tackling, the 20-year-old would be a viable back-up for the defensive duo of Leon Balogun and William Troost-Ekong.

Fikayo Tomori : The Chelsea talent who had appeared for both the England and Canada junior teams had long been muted for a Super Eagles call-up.

Now gradually establishing himself as a first choice starter at Hull in the English Championship; something that had eluded him at his parent club, it would be interesting to see him bring his near-impeccable attributes to the national team.

Fitness issues or loss of form for any of the established defenders might help further his cause before 2018.

Jordan Torunarigha : Another exciting talent who should equally be considered for the Russia World Cup traveling band is Jordan Torunarigha.

The German-born defender who plays for Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga has all the qualities of a modern-day defender who would unarguably bring a bit of extra vigour and spark.

Still just 20,it would hardly be a stretch if Rohr decide to bolster his youthful options with the acquisition of this dynamic player.

Kevin Akpoguma :  In terms of astute solidity and cohesive game-reading, the national team selectors would be bagging a good fit for the defensive zone in the shape of the Hoffeinheim defender.

Having captained the Die Mannschaft U19 team to Euro glory in 2014, throwing the 22-year-old into the fray might prove particularly a decisive recruitment as he would help shore up a back line that is fast becoming as watertight as anything.

All things been equal, it would equally ensure he ultimately gets the senior international football he richly deserves.
