Among Nigerian footballers, solely 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.
“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 his has been living with his Russian better half. Only after matches do we allow our players to meet with their families,” Rorh notably told journalists.

“I am sure we’ll get a huge backing at this championship,” he rounded off.
