Nine players have arrived at the Super Falcons’ camp in Ikenne as preparations begin for their 2028 Olympic Games qualifying tie against Comoros.

Dynamo Brest forward Blessing Nkor and Edo Queens trio Tumininu Adeshina, Christiana Uzoma and Valentina Uroko are among the first players to report to camp.

Farida Abdulwahab, Joy Igbokwe, Fatimoh Solaty, Glory Edet and Sandra John have also joined the squad as the team begins preparations for the crucial second-round encounter.

More players are expected to arrive at the team’s base at AM2PM Hotel in Ijebu-Ode on Monday as interim head coach Augustine Eguavoen steps up preparations for the two-legged tie.

Eguavoen has invited 28 players for the encounter, with the Super Falcons aiming to progress to the third round of the Olympic qualifying campaign.

Comoros are scheduled to host the first leg on Friday, October 9, before Nigeria play the return fixture as the designated home side on Tuesday, October 13.
