Super Eagles head coach Éric Chelle has strengthened Nigeria’s squad ahead of the forthcoming Unity Cup tournament in London after handing late invitations to Yira Sor and Tijani Al Ameen from the Nigeria Premier Football League.
The Malian tactician had earlier unveiled a 27-man squad for the four-nation competition, where defending champions Nigeria national football team will face Zimbabwe, India, and Jamaica national football teams later this month.
However, Chelle has now expanded the squad with the inclusion of Belgian-based winger Sor and Shooting Stars defender Al Ameen, increasing the number of invited players for the tournament.

The explosive winger will now have another opportunity to impress Chelle after struggling to leave a major mark during Nigeria’s international friendly against Jordan national football team earlier this year.
