With the Covid-19 pandemic showing no signs of abating and affecting the preparation of the local national footballers, former Golden Jaguars captain Christopher Nurse is calling for a professional or semi-professional league assist the development of the players.
According to Nurse, 36, in an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport yesterday, the national team is not the right platform as the local contingent has been hampered by the current health crisis ahead of the Golden Jaguars Concacaf Gold Cup Qualifiers next year.
Nurse said that what is required and more important for the players’ development than selection for national honours, is the creation of professional structures.
