Another player from the Golden Eaglets Class of 2019, Daniel Francis aka Dada, is causing a huge splash in Europe as captain of the Bayern Munich World Squad.
‘Dada’ from FC Hearts led the Bayern Munich selection in their opening test game Thursday against Ismaning, which they won 6-2 with the youngster scoring a goal and providing two assists.
The Bayern Munich World Squad, who along with ‘Dada’ recently toured Mexico, will play another match against Interculturale today.
On Friday, August 6, the team will play their final friendly against the Bayern Munich U19 team.
The World Squad have been in training camp in Germany since Monday, July 26, with their schedule including watching the pre-season friendly against Napoli, which Bayern lost 3-0, and a group tour of kit sponsors adidas.
Highly-rated defensive midfielder ‘Dada’ was picked for this special training tour on the back of his superlative performances for the Nigeria selection at the 2019 Bayern Munich World Youth Cup in Germany.
He also caught the eye of Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr, who incidentally was a former player of the mighty German champions.
