In a chat with Brila FM, Ugbade added that such a stand is aimed towards avoiding distraction in the team. We have said none of the players should sign any contract for now because they are still underage but whatever contract their guardian or parents sign will be closely monitored by the Nigeria Football Federation” “We are doing this at this time in order not to distract the players and the psychology of the team as a whole” he told Brila FM.
