The coach called up 30 players from teams in Nigeria for early camping, but has now dropped as many as 18 to make way for the arrival of foreign based players, who will form the pool of the team for the two legged game.
We can exclusively reveal that Norwegian based Daniel Daga top the list of new foreign based players added to the team by Chelle. Four more were also contacted by the coach.
All the invited players are expected to be in the camp of the team by this weekend in Nigeria, or join the team in DR Congo for the game next week per what we gathered.
