Unlike what obtained in recent past, Super Eagles coach Coach José Santos Peseiro has invited up to four home-based players ahead of 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against the Leone Stars of Sierra Leone in Monrovia.
They are two goal keepers – Victor Sochima (Rivers United) and Olorunleke Ojo (Enyimba FC), then a defender Chidiebube Duru with Rivers United as well as a midfielder Divine Nwachukwu who plays for Bendel Insurance of Benin.
The Portuguese tactician also invited the usual guys – captain Ahmed Musa, defender William Ekong, midfielder Alex Iwobi and forward Moses Simon among others for next weekend’s clash.
In-form forward Victor James Osimhen, whose 31 goals in all competitions for SSC Napoli this season helped the Italian giants to the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League and to their first Italian Serie A title in 33 years, tops the strikers’ list.
