Flying Eagles hit overseas camp January ending
The Flying Eagles will train overseas from the end of January ahead of the 2023 U20 AFCON, according to Coach Ladan Bosso.
The NFF are considering setting up a training camp for the Flying Eagles in either Spain or Morocco.
“We will leave Nigeria by the end of January for our training camp,” disclosed Bosso.
The overseas camp is crucial because the team will hope to acclimatise outside the country as it will be freezing cold in Egypt during the U20 AFCON.
