They were taken in an Air Peace chartered flight straight to Garoua, a
city on Cameroon’s outskirts and about 950km from the capital,
Yaounde.
There have been speculations that Ighalo could be replaced in the squad
after being held back by his Saudi Arabian club Al Shabab.
Also, the squad numbers for the 2021 Nations Cup were revealed as Joe
Aribo holds on to the famous No.10 jersey; Ighalo has been handed the
No.9 shirt while Maduka Okoye, the expected first-choice goalkeeper,
has been given the No.1 jersey.
The Eagles will kick off their quest for a fourth title on January 11
against seven-time African champions, the Pharaohs of Egypt, before
battles against Sudan and Guinea Bissau on January 15 and 19
respectively.
