The former Kano Pillars winger urged the Super Eagles Coach Gernot Rohr to keep faith with youngsters who are in good form.

“It is about time we have a new crop of players for the national team,” Musa noted.

“The young players are coming up and we have to give them a chance. Soon maybe Ahmed Musa may not want to continue playing anymore and we have to groom a new set of players to over from those that are retiring.”
