Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle will in the next 48 hours make public the list of players who will represent Nigeria in the world cup qualifiers playoff in Morocco, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
The list has already been submitted to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) but Chelle asked them to hold on as we waits on the fitness report of three players, who were nursing knocks picked up while on club duty.
He has however gotten an update on two of the three players, with the third also declared fit to take part in the playoff which begins with Nigeria taking on Gabon on th 13th of November.
” Three players were largely why Chelle didn’t give permission for the list to be made public. There were doubts about Samuel Chukwueze, Raphael Onyedika and Zaidu Sanusi. All three of them are now passed fit and ready to travel”, a team source revealed.
” Barring any unforeseen circumstances it should be made public in the next 48 hours with some new players making it as well, but it’s largely the regulars that we all know”.
