Four Nigerian league players make Super Eagles team to face Sierra Leone

Super Eagles coach Jose Peseiro has chosen four Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) players in his 23-man squad for the June 18 African Nations Cup qualifier against Sierra Leone in Monrovia.

The four are Chidiebube Duru and Victor Sochima from Rivers United, Olorunleke Ojo from Enyimba FC, and Divine Nwachukwu from Bendel Insurance. Coach Peseiro has been in attendance at the ongoing NPFL Super Six in Lagos, and it is instructive that all four players are on show for their different club sides.

Also on the list is captain Ahmed Musa, who is in line to win his 109th cap, while William Troost-Ekong returns to the team. Also on the roster is the best African player in La Liga, Samuel Chukwuze, and the newly crowned Seria A Cappocanoniere Victor Osimhen.
