The arrival of Austria Wien’s goalscoring sensation Olarenwaju Kayode and on-loan Sporting Gijon left-back Elderson Echiejile increased the number of players in the Eagles’ Crowne Plaza camp to 19.

Olajire  confirmed  that  Chelsea star Victor  Moses would not  feature in the two games as he  is currently on the treatment table following an injury he sustained while playing for his Premier League club.

Meanwhile, the  British High Commission on Tuesday  denied   three senior staff  members  of the NFF visas allegedly  on  the  ground  that they had failed to  fulfil all the requirements.

NFF Technical Director Bitrus Bewarang; Director of Competitions Bola Oyeyode; and Head of Protocol Unit Tunde Aderibigbe were turned back.

It was learnt that the NFF chiefs  were told that their visas were being  delayed  because they  had not visited the UK   for some time now.
