Ex-international, Emmanuel Babayaro has called for more focus on grassroots development in order to discover new talents and take Nigerian football to the pinnacle.
Babayaro made the appeal after a friendly match between FCT FA League champions, Waco Football Academy, and Goddosky FC of Anambra, at the Area 3 football pitch, Abuja.
The former Atlanta 1996 Olympics football Gold medalist said such friendly matches between Nationwide League One (NLO) sides was good for the development of the game.
“Grassroots development is the way to go, that is why am here to support these teams,” he said.
