Super Falcons interim coach Justine Madugu has named a squad made up of foreign pros and players based locally for forthcoming friendlies against Algeria in Lagos.
The matches will be played at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Lagos Island on Saturday, 26th October and Tuesday, 29th October respectively.
Madugu has also called Turkey-based defender Oluwatosin Demehin, Comfort Folorunsho of Edo Queens, Spain-based Gift Monday and a long list of home-based professionals and a couple of Falconets who featured at the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup in Colombia last month.
It will be the first re-grouping of the Super Falcons since the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament in France in the summer, and following the departure of American coach Randy Waldrum.
The Algerian delegation is expected in Nigeria on Wednesday.
The Confederation of African Football have already approved the two games, which will be superintended by FIFA match officials from Benin Republic.
