Super Eagles’ manager, Gernot Rohr has stated that he will allow family members to visit the Super Eagles at their base camp in Yessentuki during the 2018 World Cup.
He also said that players are forbidden from meeting with Russian girls and women of easy virtue.
He also clarified that John Mikel Obi’s Russian female partner, Olga Diyachenko, and their kids will not be prevented from seeing the Nigerian captain after matches during the tournament in her homeland.
”I will do like other teams, but only families of the players will be allowed to see their husbands,” Rohr told reporters.
”Their children will be allowed also, on Sunday after our first match on Saturday. Families of the players are free to see their husbands, not Russians girls or ‘professional girls’.
”Our disciplinary measures have to be stronger while in the camp. Players are not allowed to see other girls, except their family members after the game.
”They can even eat with us if they so like. Each player has his room, no problem for family members, they are free to come.”
Rohr is expected to announce a 25-man preliminary World Cup roster after Monday’s friendly against Democratic Republic of Congo in Port Harcourt.
