Nigeria Flying Eagles are to begin their overseas camping ending of this month, Nigeriasoccernet.com gathered.
The NFF are considering setting up a training camp for the Flying Eagles in either Spain or Morocco according to Ladan Bosso.
“We will leave Nigeria by the end of January for our training camp,” disclosed Bosso to The Nigeria.
The overseas camp is crucial because the team will hope to acclimatise outside the country as it will be freezing cold in Egypt during the U20 AFCON.
The team will re-open camp in Nigeria on January 7 during which time overseas-based professionals will join the squad to battle for team places.
The U20 AFCON will kick off February 19 in Cairo, Egypt, with Nigeria drawn against the host nation, Senegal and Mozambique in the first round.
