According to Super Eagles Media Officer, Babafemi Raji, Skipper Ahmed Musa, Moses Simon and Paul Onuachu are yet to report to camp.
The players already in camp are Maduka Okoye, Francis Uzoho, and John Noble (goalkeepers), William Troost-Ekong, Valentine Ozornwafor, Chidozie Awaziem, Shehu Abdullahi, and Jamilu Collins.
