Ike Shorummu, the goalkeeper coach for the Super Eagles, thinks the Nigeria Professional Football League will soon produce top-notch shot-blockers.

Since Vincent Enyeama stopped playing for the international team a few years ago, the team still lacks a trustworthy number-one goalkeeper.

Francis Uzoho, Daniel Akpeyi, Ikechukwu Ezenwa, and Maduka Okoye, among others, haven't made an impression between the sticks.

Since he made his name with the now-defunct Stationery Stores and Shooting Stars, Shorummu was a product of the NPFL.

The 55-year-old is confident the next set of goalkeepers for the Super Eagles will come from the NPFL.

“We are looking inwards, we would be more of our League because it is better we start from home, all our qualifiers are played in Africa, we have experimented enough,” Shorummu told Brila FM.

“But then, we need to look inward, back home here in our league, and we will see how far it goes." "When the league settles down, we will now look into our program and fit it into their own program.”
