21 June 2011<\/p>\n

Top officials of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) will not confirm an August clash against South Africa despite claims to the contrary.<\/p>\n

SAFA boss Kirten Nematandani Monday announced that Bafana will tackle the Super Eagles on August 10.<\/p>\n

But on Wednesday, organisers for a proposed friendly between West African rivals Nigeria and Ghana billed for August 9 are to unveil their plans for the London clash.<\/p>\n

Chairman of the technical committee of the NFF, Chris Green, told MTNFootball.com that nothing has been agreed with South Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ghana match stays,\u201d said Green.<\/p>\n

MTNFootball.com checks showed that the London match against Ghana is being organised by the same company who facilitated the high-profile friendly against Argentina on June 1 in Abuja.<\/p>\n

It is the same group that has proposed a money-spinning rematch against the South Americans in Bangladesh in September.<\/p>\n

It also arranged the participation of the country\u2019s U20 team, the Flying Eagles, to an invitational tournament in Suwon, South Korea, that also attracted Uruguay and New Zealand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
