Head Coach of the Super Eagles, José Peseiro, has invited captain Ahmed Musa, deputy captain William Troost-Ekong, and 25 other players to the camp for this month’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches.

Peseiro has added Israel-based goalkeeper Adebayo Adeleye, defenders Abdullahi Shehu, Zaidu Sanusi, Leon Balogun and Kenneth Omeruo, midfielders Oghenekaro Etebo and Frank Onyeka, and forwards Victor Osimhen, Samuel Chukwueze, Ademola Lookman and Sadiq Umar.
