As exclusively reported by allnigeriasoccer.com on Wednesday, former Chelsea starlet Daniel Jinadu, Bournemouth goalkeeper Joseph Oluwabusola and Arsenal's Hale End Academy product Malcolm Ebiowei have been included in the squad list as well as Sidos Academy wonderkid Akinkunmi Amoo.

Coach Manu Garba have decided to give Jinadu, Oluwabusola and Ebiowei a chance in the team after impressing in the training camp held in Abuja.
