Super Eagles assistant coach Yobo doubftul for Mexico trip

The 40-year-old coach is yet to report to the Abuja camp as NPFL stars continue preparation for next month's friendly match in Los Angeles

NFF technical director Austin Eguavoen said Joseph Yobo is a doubt for the Super Eagles’ international friendly game against Mexico on July 4 due to family issues.

Eguavoen has been saddled with the responsibility of leading the Nigeria Professional Football League players against El Tri at the Los Angeles Coliseum, with the assistance of former Nigeria U20 coach Paul Aigbogun.

Rohr stepped aside from his duty because of the unavailability of his regular players but the German coach was present at the Fifa Goal pitch on Wednesday to charge the home-based stars.
