Nigeria’s international football team, the Super Eagles will resume training at the end of September ahead of a series of friendlies in Europe, as well as a 2016 African Nations Championship qualifier against Burkina Faso.

The team’s officials said the players from the Nigerian League would form the preliminary squad, with the foreign-based stars to join in Europe.

Officials of the Nigeria Football Federation are already in discussions with Cameroon Football Federation for a friendly during the FIFA-free window in October.

The home-based Eagles will also welcome Burkina Faso in a 2016 Championship qualifier on October 16, with the return leg on October 23 in Ouagadougou.

The overall winners of this tie will qualify for the African Nations Championship in Rwanda next year.
