The FA Chief made the declaration early Wednesday, in a chat with footballlive.ng on arrival from Egypt where the Eagles failed to pick points and saw the race to the Afcon 2017 truncated.

The defeat to Egypt would further confine Nigeria to pot 3 in the CAF World Cup draws where the team will play at least one of the top 10 ranked teams on the continent.

Pinnick said the FA will ensure every International window until the World Cup qualifiers will be exploited to organize friendlies against top footballing countries.
