The Nigerians have a full collection of invited players in camp with Innocent Bonke considered a major doubt.

The regulars in the team, Victor Osimhen, Alex Iwobi, Leon Balogun, Joe Aribo and others are all in camp and have been part of the sessions.

Jose Peseiro has also been on ground to work with the players after beginning his Nigerian coaching era with straight friendly losses to North American giants, Mexico and South American side, Ecuador.

There are 27 players in camp at the moment with some of them expecting to make their official Super Eagles debut.

Newly-invited goalkeepers Adeyinka Adewale and Adebayo Adeleye and others will hope to have their debuts with the Super Eagles.

Nigeria will hope to qualify for the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast as Peseiro has stated winning it is his objective.
