Victor Osimhen and Bruno Onyemaechi have become the first players to report to the Super Eagles’ training camp in Kigali, Rwanda, ahead of Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
The duo touched down in Kigali on Sunday night, where they were received at the airport by new head coach Eric Chelle and members of his backroom staff.
Osimhen, who has been in fine form for Galatasaray, arrived fresh off a hat-trick performance in his club’s 4-0 win over Antalyaspor on Friday night.
