The Super Eagles handler told SCORENigeria that the call-ups are 25 foreign-based stars and three domestic league stars including goalkeeper Ezenwa and Alhassan Ibrahim ‘Muazzam’.
He said that he was very impressed with the home-based Eagles performance against Benin home and away and so the invitation of these players.
The Eagles list is expected to be released officially by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) this week.
