Super Eagles interim handler Augustine Eguavoen says more players will be called up to the team, preparatory to their two-legged Africa Nations Championship qualifying fixture against Ghana.
The technical director of the Nigeria Football Federation made the disclosure hours after he expressed satisfaction with the quality the players displayed in their first set of training sessions before embarking on a short break on Thursday.
Eguavoen initially independently called up 35 players to the Abuja camp, and the team had their first training session on Wednesday.
Nigeria will trade tackles with Ghana in the first leg between December 20 and 22, 2024, while the return leg will hold in Nigeria a week later.
The winner over two legs will automatically qualify for the 2025 CHAN, which will be co-hosted by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
