Gernot Rohr, the coach of the Nigerian team have decided to stick with most of the players he has worked with in the past for the camp in France, which is meant to prepare the team for their upcoming AFCON 2019 Qualifiers against South Africa.

To that effect only four new players will be  called up by the coach, with two of them coming from teams in the Nigeria Professional Football League, while the remaining two are from European teams.

Alhassan Ibrahim of Akwa United and Sikiru Olatubosun of MFM FC are the players called up from the local scene for the first time‎, while Kingsley Ehizibue from PEC Zwolle and Eupen Henry Onyekuru completes the list. Mikel Agu of FC Porto,but presently on loan to Vitoria Setubal is also seriously under consideration by Rohr, and stands an outside chance of making the team for the camp in France.
