Super Eagles begin training ahead of international friendly games against Algeria on Friday and Tunisia four days later.

Nigeria’s international friendly fixture against the North African nations are expected to prepare Gernot Rohr’s side for November’s double-header Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sierra Leone.

Super Eagles coach talking to the invited players in their first training session since defeating Lesotho 4-2 in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at Maseru’s Setsoto Stadium on November 17, 2019.

Nigeria’s encounter against Algeria would be the fourth meeting between the two countries in three years.
