Warri Wolves striker, Gbolahan Salami, will lead 17 other home-based players to Super Eagles’ Port Harcourt training camp ahead of next month’s CHAN qualifier against Burkina Faso.
Coach Sunday Oliseh, africanFootball.com gathered will stick with the players he worked with prior to the African Nations Cup qualifier in Tanzania earlier this month.
“The home-based Eagles for the CHAN qualifier will be the same players who trained for the AFCON qualifier in Tanzania,” a top official informed africanFootball.com.
“This means that the six players from the league who have been picked for the friendlies against DR Congo and Cameroon in Belgium will join up with the rest of the players in Port Harcourt after those matches.”
Salami was last month dropped from the team because of problems with his international passport.
Others invited to camp are – Ifeanyi Matthew (El Kanemi Warriors), Tunde Adetunji (Sunshine Stars), Usman Mohammed (FC Taraba), Godwin Obaje (Wikki) and Ezekiel Bassey, Kingsley Sokari, Idris Aloma (Enyimba)
The team training camp will open on October 4.
Nigeria hosts Burkina Faso in Port Harcourt on October 18, while the return leg in Ouagadougou comes up a week later.
The overall winners will qualify for the 2016 CHAN in Rwanda.
