Coach allows Obi-Mikel to date Russian women

Kaliningrad: After previously banning his footballers from having sex with the Russian fair sex at the ongoing Fifa World Cup, Nigerian coach Gernot Rorh rushed to specify his words.

Among Nigerian footballers, only the team’s lead player John Obi Mikel is allowed to date Russian women, according to Gernot Rorh, the Nigerian team’s coach. Mikel had earlier made public his relationship with a girl from Russia, reports Sputnik news agency.

“We are partaking in a major tournament, so discipline is our team’s top priority. Only the lead player can date a Russian girl, since he has been living with his Russian better half. Only after matches, do we allow our players to meet with their families,” Rorh told journalists.
