Protesting Flying Eagles are now all down at the reception of their hotel in Lodz, Poland.
All their bags have been packed, but the players have insisted they won’t move an inch until they have been paid.
A player told SCORENigeria: “Nothing has changed. We won’t leave until we have been paid.”
Top NFF officials have pleaded with the team to fly out, promising they will be paid on arrival.
“We don’t believe these officials because they have not been telling us the truth and they have not been fair with us,” insisted another player.
The players who were sent back home after they were dropped in Germany were sent off with a paltry $100 each.
The team were originally to have flown out of Poland by 3am, but the players have stayed put at their hotel.
The next possible flight out for the bulk of the squad will be 12 noon.
The deadline for eliminated teams to quit their hotels has since ran out and the team will now have to take care of themselves as FIFA will no longer do so.
SCORENigeria gathered that a FIFA official has come down to the hotel lobby to liase with the protesting players.
The Nigeria U20s crashed out Monday night at the Round of 16 of the 2019 U20 World Cup when they lost 2-1 to Senegal.
