Emem Eduok Handed Call - up For Sudan Games
Published: October 06, 2014
Stephen Keshi has handed a late invitation to Dolphins marksman Emem Eduok following the injury sustained by Stoke City winger Victor Moses last weekend in a Premier League clash against Sunderland.
Thus, the 20 - year - old has become the fifth player based in the Nigeria championship that will fight for a starting shirt in back to back African Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sudan, starting from this weekend.
Others plying their trade in the Nigeria topflight that were named in the 24 - man squad list include Chigozie Agbim (Gombe United), Azubuike Egwuekwe (Warri Wolves), Gbolahan Salami (Warri Wolves) and Osaguona Ighodaro (Enugu Rangers).
20 - year - old Eduok has never featured for the Super Eagles in the past, but turned out for the Flying Eagles at the 2013 Fifa Under 20s.
He is expected to meet up with the squad later today in Abuja.
