Full House In Eagles Uyo Camp As Idowu Arrives; Rohr Holds Team Meeting Before Workout

Published: October 10, 2018

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that the Super Eagles now have a full house in Uyo following the arrival of Russian-based defender Bryan Idowu to the Ibom Hotel & Golf Resort on Wednesday morning.

The Lokomotiv Moscow star flew in to Abuja from Moscow before connecting a flight to the Akwa Ibom State capital.

It would be his first cap for the Super Eagles in a home game if he gets some minutes against the Mediterranean Knights, bearing it in mind that he was an unused substitute in the 1-1 draw with Democratic Republic of Congo in May.

Manager Gernot Rohr will hold a team meeting with all the twenty four players in camp before they head to the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium for their first workout on grass.

The players worked out in the gym on Tuesday evening and this morning as part of their recovery sessions.

Saturday's game which corresponds to the third round of matches in Group E of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier is the first competitive match between Nigeria and Libya.
