Super Eagles Begin World Cup Playoff Camp with Nathan Tella's Fitness Battle

The Super Eagles are set to kick off their World Cup playoff camp on November 9 ahead of the crucial match against Gabon. Nathan Tella, the Nigerian winger sidelined by a knee injury, is working towards regaining full fitness.

Head coach Eric Chell is expected to reveal the squad by the end of the month. The playoff clash against Gabon will take place five days after the camp begins, although the official venue is yet to be announced by CAF.

Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen manager Kasper Hjulmand has confirmed that Tella will miss the Champions League encounter against Paris Saint-Germain due to his injury setback.
