Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle has already ruled out the participation of star attackers Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman.

Chelle explained that Osimhen was allowed time away from the national team to resolve issues surrounding his club future, while Lookman was granted a rest period after a busy campaign following a request from Atlético Madrid.

The three-time African champions are scheduled to face Poland in Warsaw on June 3 before taking on Portugal in Leiria on June 10 as part of their preparations for future competitive assignments.
