The Nigerian senior national has gotten a friendly against Costa Rica slated for the 11th of November, 2022.
Costa Rica are headed to the 2022 World Cup where they will face Spain, Germany and Japan in group E of the mundial.
Nigeria had previously secured a friendly against Portugal, whom they will now face six days after slugging it out against the Costa Ricans.
The Super Eagles lost their last international friendly game against Algeria 2-1 in Oran, and the result has led to the team getting lowered in ranking.
Nigeria now rank 32nd in the world, one place below Costa Rica who moved up in the rankings for September.
