SUPER EAGLES BEGIN TRAINING IN UYO AHEAD OF WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS.
Ahead of their crucial 2026 World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic, Super Eagles held their first full training session in Uyo on Sunday as more invited players arrived in camp.
The Eagles are scheduled to host Bafana Bafana at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on June 7 before travelling to Ivory Coast where they face the Squirrels three days later.
In preparation for the games, head coach Finidi George invited 23 Eagles stars, with the return of Maduka Okoye headlining the list of invited players.
The team’s camp officially opened on Friday in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State with the Eagles lodged at the Ibom Golf Resort Hotel, the same base they used during their successful qualification for the 2018 World Cup.
