Vincent Enyeama is currently without a club after leaving French side Lille.

Ahmed Musa has finally explained how himself, Mikel Obi and Emmanuel Emenike went to beg Coach Sunday Oliseh after stripping Vincent Enyeama of the captain armband.

Enyeama had issues with Sunday Oliseh five years ago in the Super Eagles which forced the legendary goalkeeper out of the team.

Musa who played with Vincent Enyeama in two World Cups has now stated exclusively that Super Eagles players are still missing Vincent Enyeama.

“We were all shocked when it happened, it was a very sad moment for all of us on that day because we were in camp when it happened.

“After it happened, Mikel, Echiejile, Emenike and myself went to meet Sunday Oliseh to beg him on behalf of Enyeama, but his mind was already made up and that’s football for you.

“Even till now, we still miss him (Enyeama) in the team,” Ahmed Musa explained to Legit.ng in an exclusive live Instagram interview.

On the other hand, Vincent Enyeama stated that he has no issue again with Sunday Oliseh ,stressing that he would run to hug him any time he sees the former Juventus star.
