Coach Éric Chelle has expanded his Super Eagles roster for the Unity Cup in London. Two fresh faces have earned spots on the team.

Collins Yira Sor joins the squad as a winger from KRC Genk. Tijani Al-Ameen, a defender with Shooting Stars, completes the additions.

Chelle unveiled a 27-player contingent for the invitational tournament on Wednesday. Sor featured in March's friendlies against Iran and Jordan.

Al-Ameen receives his first call-up to the national team. His selection marks a breakthrough for the Shooting Stars defender.

AIK's Zadok Yohanna won't travel to England for the competition. The Swedish club refused to release him for the tournament.

Nigeria's delegation departs for London on Friday. Preparations for the Unity Cup continue at pace.
