Nigeria To Host a Four-Nation Tourney Before 2016 Chan Championship

The Nigeria Football Federation have began plans to organise a four-nation tournament to prepare the home-based Super Eagles for next year's CHAN championship in Rwanda.

This was revealed by NFF's match agent, Ebi Egbe, adding that the tourney could include Zambia, Cape Verde and Angola.

"We have begun talks with countries like Zambia, Cape Verde, Angola to see how we can organise a four nation tourney," Egbe told AfricanFootball.com

"The essence is to help the home Eagles prepare for the CHAN championship next year and for Nigerians to have a feel of what Sunday Oliseh has in store for the national team.

"Although we are yet to pick a date and a host venue, the tourney would happen before the CHAN championship in Rwanda next year."

In October, Nigeria will take on Burkina Faso for a place in the 2016 CHAN.

Nigeria placed third on their CHAN debut appearance last year in South Africa. AfricanFootball
