Eaglets to join Flying Eaglets in Doha

I recently visited the ASPIRE Academy. It was a brilliant experience. I have heard that several foreign teams visit there to play games against their sides. So it was not very surprising to read this news about Nigerian under-20 team training there.
The new news is that the under-17 team will soon join them. Check this link…

“Nigeria Football Federation have discovered a new haven for training of youth teams as preparations for major international tournaments. The new training site is the Aspire Academy in Doha Qatar. Nigeria national U-20 team Flying Eagles, coached by Samson Siasia are presently in the same academy intensifying training ahead world U-20 tournament.” (read more at the link).

What do you all think about this? I personally think it is a great initiative of sharing your facilities with others.

I have heard that youth teams of teams like Chelsea, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Brazil national team etc… come there for training. If that is so, I request the authorities to publish about it so that we can see some good matches of the young side.
