Nigerian international Ogenyi Onazi was spotted training with Nigeria Professional Football League side Remo Stars on Tuesday.

It was gathered that the 30-year-old former Lazio of Italy midfielder participated in a full session at the team’s Ikenne training ground.

It was a moment to reunite with ex-home-based Super Eagles star Dayo Ojo, who was also at the heated session.

Remo Stars were delighted to have the footballers in their midst, and the club took to their official Twitter handle to write:

“@OnaziOgenyi paid a courtesy visit to our team’s training this Tuesday.

“Onazi, an AFCON winner with the Super Eagles shared moments with the lads before the session. ”

It remains to be seen if the experienced midfielder will pen a contract with the Sky Blue Stars ahead of the new season.

The 2022/23 NPFL season will kick-off on January 8.

Onazi not impressed with current Super Eagles set up

Meanwhile, he is clearly not impressed with the way the Nigerian national team is being run.

The former Lazio of Italy star stated that Nigeria needs to concentrate more on stabilizing the national team following the not-too-impressive results in recent times.

Nigeria failed to go past the second round in the 2021 AFCON tournament and also failed to qualify for the World Cup.

According to Onazi, the Nigerian national team no longer has value as players just stroll in and out of the squad with little or no meaningful contribution.
