ADO Den Haag Talent Ebuehi : Omeruo & Troost-Ekong Helped Me Settle Into Nigeria Squad
Published: April 12, 2017ADO Den Haag young star Tyronne Ebuehi has revealed that defenders William Troost-Ekong and Kenneth Omeruo helped him settle into the Super Eagles squad during last month's training camp in London.
Understandably, Troost-Ekong took Ebuehi under his wing because he was born in the Netherlands, while Omeruo spent time with ADO Den Haag on loan shortly after his under the radar transfer to Chelsea in January 2012.
''I will not forget. William Troost-Ekong, who also has a Nigerian father and a Dutch mother, took me and showed me around, '' said Ebuehi to De Posthoorn.
''Kenneth Omeruo also came right to me. Nigeria have players from Manchester City and Arsenal and that is a difference in operation speed with what I'm used to.''
Ebuehi could not make his international debut against Burkina Faso as the friendly was cancelled, and will be assessed once again by Nigeria manager Gernot Rohr in France next month before the AFCON qualifier against South Africa.
