Newly appointed Captain Ramon Azeez and forwards Stanley Okoro and Kayode Olanrewaju would join national U-20 team mates at the Antalya, Turkey.
The duo of midfielder Azeez, who replaces dropped skipper Fortune Chukwudi, and Okoro flew to Turkey, while Olanrewaju traveled from Ibadan for the Turkish Air flight to depart to Antalya to meet with the team.
“We’re really looking forward to receiving the trio in camp. The spirit is high in camp as the other players look forward to having them around”, said Dr. Emmanuel Ikpeme, NFF’s Deputy General Secretary (Technical).
With the departure of Olanrewaju, Okoro and Azeez, Flying Eagles Head Coach Sam John Obuh is expecting only one more player to join his team ahead of the African Youth Championship: VVV Venlo of Holland’s rapid raider Ahmed Musa.
