The Super Eagles have received a massive boost ahead of tomorrow night’s friendly against Poland following the arrival of more players to the training camp.
Fulham defender Calvin Bassey has joined up to bring the number of players in camp to 20.
Germany-based winger Philip Otele, who shone at the Unity Cup in London, was being expected to hit camp on Tuesday night.
Just as Poland experimented with a number of debutants in their last match (against Ukraine on Sunday), Nigeria also sent out a number of debutants in their last two games as they won the Unity Cup.
Coach Jan Urban may rely principally on in-form winger Jakub Kamiński, who came in as a substitute against Ukraine, but there are also the likes of Oskar Pietuszewski, Mateusz, Żukowski, Norbert Wojtuszek, Kacper Potulski and Oskar Wójcik.
Wednesday’s game will commence at 8.45pm Poland time (7.45pm Nigeria time) at the 58,000 – capacity PGE Narodowy Stadium in Warsaw.
