Speaking on his performance in the tournament, Neville said, “I don’t rate myself, I rather hear what people say about me, my coaches are not coaches that will give you compliment even if you are playing well but I technically understand…all I know is that people talk well about my games, about the experiences which I had overseas and it complements my games.

“Right now I’m focusing on gaining necessary fitness as transfer window is about to open, just trying to improve on my performance, preparing myself, look up for opportunities.

“At this level, I’m looking at top football, not necessarily top 5 leagues, somewhere my skills will improve, Albania, Asia countries and also the top 5 leagues because we never know where opportunities will come from.

“My skills and display always speak for me and I’m ready to keep doing what I know how best to do.”

Giving remark on Nigeria football, Nnamdi said the standard is still growing compared to other leagues abroad.
