Super Eagles defender, William Troost-Ekong has come out to say that playing for Nigeria against Algeria can help him keep his place at Watford under Rob Edwards. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he has been working really hard over the last few weeks in training to get his chance at his club side, and he was pleased to finally get the opportunity to prove his worth recently.
Ekong added that he can only hope to play more games with Nigeria to improve his form and fitness for Watford.
His words, “I’ve worked really hard over the last few weeks in training to get my chance in the team, and today was my opportunity to give everything.”
“Rob [Edwards] tries to fill us all with confidence before every game, and we would’ve loved to have repaid him with three points, but we’ll keep working on a way to do that in the next game.”
“Hopefully I play some games while I’m away with Nigeria, and improve my form and fitness, and then come back and help the team kick on.”
