The Nigerian Football Federation has announced a 24-player roster for the Super Falcons’ first-round qualifiers for the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.

The 2024 WAFCON will be the 15th edition of the biennial African women’s football tournament organised by the Confederation of African Football and it is scheduled to hold in Morocco.

Notable returns to the squad include Asisat Oshoala, Rasheedat Ajibade, and Chiamaka Nnadozie, who will represent Nigeria in the double-legged clash against Sao Tome and Principe.

Other players listed in the squad are Michelle Alozie, Christy Ucheibe, Toni Payne, Ifeaoma Onumonu, and Gift Monday. The inclusion of nine home-based players, including Onome Ebi, Esther Onyenezide, Flourish Sebastien, and Opeyemi Ajakaye, highlights the commitment to local talent.
