The Super Eagles camp in Lagos officially opened on Sunday, the 11th of June. Coach Jose Peseiro invited 23 players for their Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sierra Leone.
Jose Peseiro and his players are camped at the prestigious Eko Hotel and Suites.
The Super Eagles will begin preparations for the game at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos on Monday night.
