Eric Chelle has unveiled a preliminary 39-man roster ahead of Nigeria’s 2026 World Cup qualifying matches set for March.
In a significant development, veteran forward Ahmed Musa rejoins the squad after a lengthy absence from international duty.
Several new faces have earned their first call-ups, including Tolu Arokodare, Igoh Ogbu, Ifeanyi Onyebuchi, Anthony Dennis, Chrisantus Uche, Papa Daniel Mustapha, and Akor Adams.
Before the Super Eagles face Rwanda and Zimbabwe on March 21 and 25, the squad will be trimmed down to 23 final selections.
