NIGERIA have proposed a friendly against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon next month in Europe as coach Sunday Oliseh steps up rebuilding the Super Eagles.
Eagles recorded a disappointing draw in Tanzania in a 2017 AFCON qualifier at the weekend in Oliseh’s first game in charge.
And a top official has now informed AfricanFootball.com that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) are now working on the team to play a friendly against Cameroon in Europe early next month.
There are two FIFA friendly windows left for this year – 5-13 October and 9-17 November.
“The NFF are looking at getting the Eagles to face Cameroon in a friendly early next month and the game will most likely be played in Europe,” the official told AfricanFootball.com
Both countries have clashed a total of 19 times since April 1960.
Nigeria have won eight times and drawn seven times, while Cameroon were victorious on four occasions.
Their last meeting was at the 2004 AFCON in Tunisia, where the Eagles topped the Indomitable Lions 2-1 to qualify for the semi-finals of the tournament.
