Il torneo riprenderà il 18 luglio

[ars72]

Il 18 luglio sarebbe dovuto riprendere il torneo dopo la pausa per il Mondiale ma a causa di contrasti tra Lega e Federazione il campionato è stato sospeso a tempo indeterminato.

Possibile intervento della Fifa o della Caf per risolvere l'improvvisa crisi del calcio nigeriano.

[ars72]

La crisi economica del calcio nigeriano si è "risolta" con l'interruzione definitiva del torneo 2018 dopo 24 giornate senza la proclamazione di un vincitore.
Il Lobi Stars in testa al campionato al momento dell'interruzione, rappresenterà la Nigeria nella prossima Champions League.

E per il prossimo anno si preannuncia un improbabile format a 24 squadre con le 4 neopromosse dalla National League!
