Enyimba coach Usman Abd’Allah has subtly suggested his team will direct more energy at attempting to win a third African title ahead of fighting to retain the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) crown in the new season.
The People's Elephant enjoyed domestic success last season, overcoming a sloppy start to finish as NPFL champions for a record eighth time and sealing a return to the Champions League in the process.
However, while speaking ahead of his side’s weekend Champions League fixture in Ouagadougou, Abd'Allah says they are looking beyond domestic success.
