Officials have informed SCORENigeria that the Super Eagles will begin training tomorrow morning ahead of AFCON qualifiers against Benin and Lesotho with nine players now in the camp in Lagos.
Genk striker Paul Onuachu and Alex Iwobi from Everton are among the latest players to report to the Eko Hotel camp of the Eagles in Lagos.
Onuachu’s arrival is a big surprise as several Belgian clubs have stopped their players from international duty on account of concerns over the Coronavirus Pandemic.
Ahmed Musa, Ola Aina, William Ekong, Henry Onyekuru, Semi Ajayi, Oghenekaro Etebo and Shehu Abdullahi were the first set of players to hit camp.
The number of players in camp is expected to double before tomorrow’s first training.
The team are due to depart for Benin Republic Thursday.
The match will be played on Saturday in Porto-Novo with the home team needing a win to qualify for the AFCON, while a point will qualify group leaders Nigeria.
