NPFL Super Eagles’ invitee aims to help revive World Cup dreams

Three players from the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) are in the running for action with the Super Eagles as the team resumes their campaign in the 2026 World Cup qualifying series next week.

After a disappointing start that fetched just two points from their first two matches against Lesotho and Zimbabwe, the Super Eagles cannot afford any more slip-ups.

Ahead of matchdays three and four fixtures against South Africa and Benin Republic, respectively, Super Eagles coach Finidi George has handed invitations to three players from the NPFL, a decision many have described as a step in the right direction.
