Super Falcons head coach Justine Madugu has unveiled a 20-player squad for the highly anticipated international friendly against France on November 30.
The match, scheduled for 9:30 PM Nigerian time at Stade Raymond Kopa in Angers, will feature the return of key players like Ashleigh Plumptre, Michelle Alozie, and Rinsola Babajide. This lineup blends foreign-based stars with seven talents from the Nigeria Women Football League.
However, notable absences include team captain Rasheedat Ajibade, who is nursing an injury, and star forward Asisat Oshoala, a five-time Women’s African Player of the Year.
The squad will convene directly in France, where the coaching staff and backroom team will join them to prepare for the clash against Les Bleues.
This friendly offers the Super Falcons a chance to test their strength against a formidable French side while integrating returning players into the squad. Fans are eager to see how the team performs without some of its biggest stars.
