Babangida told Ghanasoccernet: “There is no doubt that the current strikers in the Super Eagles are not doing badly in Europe.”
“The likes of Osimhen, Ighalo, Sadiq and others are banging the goals for their respective clubs and it’s a sign of good things to come for the team.”
He added: “Again, this will definitely give Eguavoen a serious headache in terms of who to select for the game against Ghana.”
“If he gets the right strikers to start, then the team will pick the ticket for Qatar.”
