After a three-week selection process in Abuja, the Flying Eagles moved to Ikenne, Ogun State, for a one-week final camping programme at the high-grade Remo Sports Institute.
The 2023 FIFA World Cup quarter-finalists have played two friendly matches since arriving in Ikenne, both ending in victories, trouncing Seamoriow FC 4-1 in the first match and edging Grass Runners Academy 2-1 in the second.
Hosts Togo will battle Ghana, Benin Republic, and Niger Republic in Group A of the competition that is scheduled for October 17 to 31.
The championship serves as the qualifying tournament for next year’s Africa U20 Cup of Nations, from where the top-placed four teams will qualify to fly Africa’s flag at next year’s FIFA U20 World Cup finals in Chile.
