Wolves give Rangers deadline on Agbim

Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) outfit, Warri Wolves, are ready to sell Super Eagles goalkeeper, Chigozie Agbim to rivals, Enugu Rangers for N8 million (around $52,000).

But Rangers have been haggling with Wolves to pay half the asking fee for the Nigerian national team goalkeeper.

Warri Wolves are ready to farm out Agbim to Rangers and have included a deadline of April 26 for them to pay up the transfer fee of N8 million.

Supersport.com learnt that Rangers are desperate to land Agbim ahead of their Caf Champions League game against Angola's CRD Libolo on Sunday.

The Flying Antelopes have just one goalkeeper, Godwin Anyalogu available for selection ahead of the tie after failing to register Itodo Akor who joined them this term from El-Kanemi Warriors.

Agbim is understood to be the other available goalkeeper registered for the Champions League apart from Anyalogu.

Nigerians to Eagles: Give us this day

After 19 years of waiting for another continental title and thirteen years since appearing in the final, the Super Eagles of Nigeria are on the threshold of history as they face the Stallions of Burkina Faso in the final of the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in Johannesburg  today. And Nigerians are highly expectant.

For Coach Stephen Keshi, the day represents a turning point in his romance with the round leather game. In 1994, he won the trophy as captain of the Nigerian team, the last time Nigeria lifted the cup. If he leads the Super Eagles to win the trophy today, he then becomes only the second man to have won the tournament as player and coach after Egyptian legend, late Mahmoud El Gohary.
