Yobo declares he wants his super eagles shirt back.
« on: February 10, 2014, 09:44:56 PM »
 After a confident debut performance in the 0-0 draw
with title-chasers Manchester City on Saturday Super
Eagles captain and Norwich City defender Joseph
Yobo has set his sights on a return to the national
team as he looks set to force his way into the squad
for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. The Super Eagles’ most capped player returned to
England to join the Canaries in January after four
years in Turkey with Fenerbahce. The Eagles skipper is looking to claim back his place
he lost after the 2013 African Cup of Nations. “It’s been a while since I was involved with Nigeria. I
haven’t played for the Super Eagles since we became
the champions of Africa,” Yobo said after this
weekend’s Premier League match. “I have spoken to (Stephen Keshi) and I think we are
on equal basis now so I just have to perform well for
Norwich City now and get my place back in the
national team. “I have been in the national team for so long.
Captaining the national team gives me a special
feeling and going to the World Cup for me will be an
addition. “I am here (in England) now and my priority now is
Norwich City. Hopefully if I do well here, the national
team (call up) will just be an addition. It will be a
pleasure,” he added.
