Former Super Eagles coach, Samson Siasia, has revealed that Mikel Obi is stubborn.
Siasia disclosed this during a podcast with ex-international Emmanuel Babayaro and journalist Mathew Edafe over the weekend.
According to him, he finds it challenging to tolerate footballers who are stubborn.
“Mikel is a little bit out of my list; he is stubborn. I can not tolerate people like that much. The only good thing he did was that he came and played very well in the Olympics. He acted as a captain,” Siasia, a former Super Eagles striker, said.
