Right wing-back Okunowo earlier informed allnigeriasoccer.com that he wanted to feature in the game, while ex-Golden Eaglets manager Amuneke ruled himself out because he's presently in Nigeria.
Twenty two former Barcelona stars have confirmed their availability for the charity match, including two ex-World Player of the Year Ronaldinho and Rivaldo, Patrick Kluivert, Davids, Julio Salinas and Popescu.
Berbatov, Fortune, Silvestre, Alan Smith and Dwight Yorke have been named in Manchester United's traveling party to Spain.
