Warri Wolves have called off a pay strike to host Club Racing de Bobo Doulasso of Burkina Faso in a CAF Confederation Cup preliminary round second leg match on Saturday.
Despite embarking on a strike to press for the payment of outstanding entitlements, the coach Paul Aigbogun-tutored side are confident ahead of the game following a 1-0 away win in the first leg.
Wolves match winner in Burkina Faso Abu Azeez said he is looking forward to getting another goal to help his side see off the Burkinabes, but warns it will be tough.
“I am looking forward to a great and good game against the Burkina Faso team, we just want to win the second leg to do a double over them and progress to next stage and I am looking forward to score against them again in this one,” said Azeez, who along with Bartholomew Ibenegbu, has been excused by the beach Eagles.
“It won’t be an easy game for us, they are a good side too and will come hard at us because they know it is the last chance they have. They will be coming here with everything in them.
“As I said they are a good side, we were better in the first leg and will still be better than them in the second leg.”
Meanwhile, Nigeria U23 coach Samson Siasia has released Oghenekaro Etebo to Wolves for Saturday’s showdown.
