Foreign Pros Invited To Flying Eagles Camp

Foreign based professionals like Kelechi Iheanacho and Isaac Success have been extended invitations to the Flying Eagles camp ahead of next year’s African Youth Championship in Senegal.

 

Iheanacho is on the books of English Premier League champions Manchester City, while Success has already broken into the first team at Spanish La Liga side Granada CF.

 

The other invited pros are Chidiebere Nwakali (Manchester City/England), Taiwo Awoniyi (Kalmar/Sweden), Chidera Eze (FC Porto/Portugal), Daddy Moses, Kingsley Madu (AS Trencin/Slovakia) and Musa Yahaya (Tottenham Hotspur/England).

 

According to coach Manu Garba, the players are expected to join up with the Flying Eagles when the team’s training camp reopens in Kaduna on December 27.

 

He also said he has received assurances for the release of the players by their clubs.

 

The AYC will get underway on March 8 in Dakar, Senegal.

 

The eight-team tournament will produce Africa’s four representatives to the 2015 FIFA U20 World Cup in New Zealand.
