The Super Eagles began training at Cray Valley yesterday, and 14 players have already arrived in camp: Junior Ayobami, Al Ameen Tijani, Michael Atata, Adeoye Aderemi, Oputa Chibueze, Ighoke Obinna, Ocholi Elias, Oyedokun Tosin, Philip Otele, Arthur Okonkwo, Femi Azeez, Owen Oseni, Nnadi Tochukwu, and Terem Moffi.

Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle also extended an invitation to former Arsenal goalkeeper Ovie Ejeheri.

After the training session, Moffi spoke about the atmosphere in the Super Eagles camp and how the new faces are integrating into the side.

“It’s been top sessions from the boys, and we’re proud to be here, happy to represent the country. We are looking forward to other sessions and the games,” the OGC Nice loanee told Austin Okon‑Akpan.

“From the boys back home, top session from them. We could see the quality from the get‑go. This is what we need in the Super Eagles, a mix of this and that. We love that.”

“There’s no pressure at all. We are just happy to be here to play football, enjoy ourselves and win games.”

“It doesn’t make it a difficult game. There’s no hard feelings. We are just here to play another game against Zimbabwe, so we try to win. We will win,” Terem Moffi concluded.
