Our camp will open on Wednesday not on Monday as initially reported. “

We expect most of the players to arrive in camp that day; many of them would have been in the country from Tuesday and they would just make a connecting flight to Uyo from Lagos and Abuja the same day so as to arrive at the camp on time. One of the official said.

We expect to have our first training session by 5 pm on Wednesday and we expect that most of the players would be around to take part in that session,” he said.

Prior to this weekend’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sao Tome & Principe, Eagles coach Jose Peseiro has called up 23 players.

Super Eagles are eager to replicate their outstanding performance in front of their home crowd after defeating Sao Tomé and Principe 10-0 in the first leg of the 2023 African Cup of Nations qualifiers in Libya.
