Most Super Eagles players's dont have their careers reaching an expected outcome.

Recently iconic Portuguese striker Ronaldo played in a World Cup qualifier for Portugal banging in goals yet he had celebrated his fortieth birthday.

The Real Madrid legend is still planning to be at the World Cup in 2026 but not so for Nigerian players many of whom do not play at all at any higher level and yet they are satisfied to retire.

Messi, and many players from the Latin American countries played at the highest level of a football career and are still disciplined enough to play for a very long time before they retire. Playing at 40 years.

For Nigerian players,it seems as soon as they make a little success they begin to struggle with a lifestyle of pleasure and their career dwindles.

Nigerian fans expect much more from the league of foreign based players of Nigerian origin playing abroad but are left disappointed.

A typical example is Kelechi Iheanacho who was named the tournament's best player and the tournament second highest goalscorer of the 2013 under-17 World Cup and had shown great promise in the colours of Man. City and Leicester city, commanding the second highest price tag after Mohamed Salah for any African player at that time when he left Man. City for Leicester for 25 million pounds.

Only recent Kelechi ended a loan spell at Middlesbrough scoring one goal in eleven matches for the championship club side and had to move to Celtic at just 28 years old on a one year deal. 

Surely there's a reason for Nigerian players to show more discipline in their careers.
