Wilfred Ndidi and Olarewaju Kayode, have bolstered the Super Eagles squad preparing for their next friendly game against Togo, with 17 players now in camp. Arsenal's  Alex Iwobi and Chelsea's Ola Aina are also expected to join the rest of the Eagles soon.

The arrival of Leicester City's Wilfred Ndidi and FK Austria Wien's Olarewaju Kayode, have bolstered the Super Eagles squad preparing for their next friendly game against Togo, with 17 players now in camp.

The number of players in the Paris camp would have been 18 but for the absence of Kelechi Iheanacho who was permitted to leave camp for London on personal grounds.

The Manchester City star who scored the equaliser Friday, in the Super Eagles 1-1 draw with Corsica, was allowed the time off by caoch Gernot Rohr in order to attend to what is expected to be his move to West Ham United for a reported £24m.

Meanwhile, Arsenal and Chelsea revelations, Alex Iwobi and Ola Aina, are also expected to further swell the numbers when they arrive the camp following Cup duties with their respective teams.

Iwobi was an unused substitute for Arsenal while Aina wasn’t listed for Chelsea as Arsenal clinched the FA Cup with a 2-1 win.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles’ match against their Sparrow Hawks counterparts will be played on June 1 by 5.30pm.
