Former England U19 skipper Ola Aina will train with the Nigerian national team in Corsica this coming month.
There had been fears that the Chelsea right fullback is reconsidering his decision to suit up for the three-time African champions, but the Nigeria Football Federation have confirmed that he has been included in the roster for the get-together.
Aina was handed a late call-up to the Super Eagles in March, and impressed the players and manager Gernot Rohr during the training camp in London. Football governing body Fifa has to approve his change of international allegiance because he played competitive matches for England youth teams.
