SCORENigeria has learnt that Brentford new signing Benjamin Fredrick has been listed on the Super Eagles provisional squad for next month’s 2025 AFCON qualifiers against Benin and Rwanda.
Even without a head coach in place, the NFF technical department in conjunction with a top team official have compiled a provisional squad for the AFCON qualifiers and it is from this squad that a final list will be announced.
Fredrick, 19, has impressed in pre-season training ahead of the new Premier League season with Super Eagles midfielder Frank Onyeka singing his praise.
He is now expected to make his Premier League debut in the new season after Brentford triggered his loan transfer to a permanent deal.
The central defender was a standout player for the Flying Eagles at both the U20 AFCON and U20 World Cup last year.
