Super Eagles coach Rohr looking to have 'good working relationship' with Yobo

The 66-year-old German tactician is impressed with the attitude of the former Nigeria international

Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr is looking to have a good working relationship with his new assistant Joseph Yobo and has praised him for his motivation.

The former Everton defender was appointed into his new role this year by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) after Imama Amapakabo was sacked.

Although it is believed the German tactician was not consulted in the appointment of the ex-Super Eagles captain, Rohr has started working well with him and he is impressed with his attitude.
