Midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo is poised to be recalled back to the Super Eagles squad for the forthcoming friendly against Portugal in Lisbon.
Etebo last played and scored in the Eagles record 10-0 win over Sao Tome & Principe in June but missed the friendly against Algeria in September due to his inactiveness at club level.
However, the 26-year-old has since sorted out his club career as he is now playing regular first-team football at Greek club Aris Saloniki, after a difficult time in England with Stoke City and Watford.
The Olympic bronze medalist, who has been capped 44 times and has three goals at international level, is expected to be joined by Southampton midfielder Joe Aribo, who asked to be excused from the Eagles 2-1 loss to Algeria in September.
