Super Eagles goalkeeper Trainer, Alloy Agu has confirmed Vincent Enyeama’s return to the team is almost certain but asserts he is not guaranteed an automatic place.

The Lille goalkeeper, who returned from a six-month sideline due to injury recently, announced his retirement from the national team in 2015 because of a bust-up with coach Sunday Oliseh.

Agu said Enyeama, who has earned over a century of international caps for Nigeria, have been contacted on a possible return particularly now that he is back to full fitness.

‘It’s important for us to know that Nigerians want the best and safest hands at the World Cup.

‘We want to look around and give everybody the opportunity. It is good that Vincent has returned to fitness and is back with his club.

‘We’ve been in touch with him. The Coach has spoken with him too but Vincent must fight for his place. It will not be an automatic place for him or any other goalkeeper,’ Agu explained.
