Nigeria Football Federation has invited Feyenoord forward Cyriel Dessers for the international friendly matches against Mexico and Ecuador in the United States of America later this month.
Expressing his delight over his return to the Super Eagles after the team list for the two friendlies was released on Wednesday, Cyriel said, “We are back, let’s go”.
The Super Eagles Assistant Coach, Salisu Yusuf, had earlier released a list of 30 players including Team captain, Ahmed Musa and forward, Moses Simon.
The three-time African champions will square it up in friendlies with CONCACAF powerhouse, Mexico, at the AT & T stadium in Dallas, State of Texas on Saturday, May 28, before flying to New Jersey to tackle Ecuador at the Red Bull Arena in Harrison on Thursday, June 2.
