“To him and to many others in Serie A: Dessers, Ola Aina, Ebuehi, for example. We are observing them all, and then when we have to make a list, we will have to make choices, and it will not be easy," Peseiro continued.
The Super Eagles coach added, "because luckily, we have a lot of choices. But Success is there among the players we have an eye on.”
Success started and played 86 minutes for Udinese in their 1-0 away win at Empoli earlier in the day.
