Full Super Eagles Squad Trains Ahead of Tanzania Qualifier in Uyo

All 24 players called up by Super Eagles coach Éric Chelle were available for Wednesday’s training session ahead of Nigeria’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Tanzania.

Captain Wilfred Ndidi and new invitee Mubarak Suleiman were among the final arrivals. They joined a group that already included Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, Moses Simon and Ademola Lookman.

Striker Victor Osimhen and winger Samuel Chukwueze are absent from the squad through injury.

Nigeria will host the Taifa Stars at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo on Friday, 13 November, News About Nigeria reports.

The Nigeria Football Federation lists the return fixture for Tuesday, 17 November, at the Amman Stadium in Zanzibar.

The Super Eagles have three points from their first two Group L matches. They beat Madagascar 2–1 in Uyo before losing 3–0 away to Guinea-Bissau, who lead the group.

Tanzania already have a place at the finals as co-hosts, leaving one additional qualification spot available from the group.

The two matches give Nigeria a chance to improve their position before the remaining qualifiers.
