Lookman, Osimhen, Fernandez, Iwobi, Okonkwo, Moffi, 18 others named in Nigeria squad for Poland, Portugal friendlies (full list)

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report with certainty that the Nigeria Football Federation are set to announce the Super Eagles squad for the upcoming friendlies against Poland and Portugal, with manager Eric Chelle picking his strongest available squad.

The three-time African champions will face Poland on June 3 before taking on World Cup-bound Portugal seven days later.

An analysis of the squad list shows that three goalkeepers, seven defenders, seven midfielders and seven forwards have been selected for the high-profile encounters against the European opposition.

Arthur Okonkwo has earned a place in the 24-man squad expected to be announced in the coming days, if not hours.

The Wrexham goalkeeper is set to compete with Maduka Okoye and Francis Uzoho for the number one spot.

Despite initial concerns surrounding his fitness, Alex Iwobi has been cleared by Fulham's medical staff after returning from injury in last weekend's clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers , having spent close to a month on the sidelines.

Also included in the squad are star forwards Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman, alongside Rangers central defender Emmanuel Fernandez.

The attacking options have further been strengthened with the inclusion of Terem Moffi, Akor Adams, Paul Onuachu, Moses Simon and Samuel Chukwueze.
