He said, “If a guy comes to touch my goalkeeper or do something bad to him, if I have to go on the pitch to beat this guy, I will do!.

“These guys are not my players, they’re my army and we are united and we go to war! We are warriors.”

Chelle also singled out Victor Osimhen for his intensity and leadership qualities during matches.

He added, “When Victor doesn’t have the ball, he shouts, but after that, he gives the best work on the pitch and hypes up his teammates!”
