CHAN 2025: Musa Out As Eguavoen Lists 35 Dor Ghana Clash
Ahmed Musa is a conspicuous absentee as Head Coach Augustine Eguavoen named his 35-man Super Eagles B squad to face Ghana in the 2025 African Nations Cup Championship qualification.
Musa recently returned to the Nigeria Premier Football League and has been on fire since rejoining his boyhood club, Kano Pillars.
Eguavoen has called to camp Remo Stars’ wing-back Ismail Sadiq, Kano Pillars’ forward Zikifilu Rabiu, and Enugu Rangers’ attacking midfielder Kazeem Ogunleye.
The first leg of the fixture, which is a reminder of the qualification series for the last edition of the competition, which Ghana edged on a penalty shootout, is billed for the weekend of 20th–22nd December, with the return leg a week later.
So This Happened (EP 258)
The winner over two legs will earn a slot in the 8th edition of the competition exclusively reserved for footballers plying their trade in their country’s domestic league. The finals will take place across Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania from February 1st to 28th, 2025.
Akwa United’s Wisdom Ndom, Enugu Rangers’ Saviour Isaac, Anas Yusuf of Nasarawa United, and El-Kanemi Warriors’ Abba Maigari are also invited to the camp that will open in Abuja on Tuesday, 29th October.
