Nigeria will announce the names for the squad of players to feature against Egypt for two AFCON 2017 qualifiers in March on Thursday.
Super Eagles hosts Egypt on March 25 in Kaduna, while the return leg in Cairo will be played four days later.
Egypt lead a qualifying pool that also has Tanzania and Chad with six points from two matches, two points ahead of Nigeria.
It is expected that a training camp will open early in the new month with players from the domestic league, with the foreign-based players expected to fly in by March 21.
The Nigerian side recently got a new coach, Samson Siasia, after Sunday Oliseh resigned on February 26. (Channels TV)
