New signing Kelechi Iheanacho had been struggling with a toe injury since completing his move to The Foxes, an ailment that made him miss the league game against Brighton last weekend, and probably the League Cup match with Sheffield United.
It is envisaged that the Leicester City number eight will join the Super Eagles training camp latest Monday, the same day that teammate Wilfred Ndidi is expected in Abuja.
Former Watford star Odion Ighalo was the first foreign based professional to arrive the Super Eagles camp on Friday, and he'll soon be joined by Chippa United netminder Daniel Akpeyi.
Meanwhile, Tianjin Teda midfielder John Obi Mikel has yet to join the team as at 1530 hours on Saturday.
