Ahead of Tuesday’s glamour friendly match with newly-crowned Europa League kings, Atletico Madrid FC of Spain at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo, Super Eagles’ B Head Coach Salisu Yusuf has invited 23 players, among them highly-rated Plateau United striker Tosin Omoyele and Katsina United defender Destiny Ashadi.
There were also call-ups for Akwa United FC goalkeeper Olorunleke Ojo, Enyimba FC forward Isiaka Oladuntoye, FC IfeanyiUbah defender Adeleye Olamilekan and Lobi Stars’ duo of Olufemi Kayode and Ebube Duru.
A sprinkle of foreign-based actors, including the nimble-footed Alhassan Ibrahim, former U17 World Cup-winning captain Musa Muhammed and the Nwakali brothers (Chidiebere and Kelechi) was also included.
