Daniel Akpeyi has been recalled for November’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying games against Sierra Leone.
The veteran goalkeeper’s last game for the country was against Lesotho on November 17, 2019. There, Victor Osimhen’s brace led the Super Eagles to a 4-2 triumph at Setsoto Stadium, Maseru.
The Kaizer Chiefs star was excluded from Gernot Rohr’s team that faced reigning African champions Algeria and Tunisia in recent international friendlies owing to injury.
However, he has been invited to compete for a starter’s shirt when the three-time African champions take on the Leone Stars enroute qualification for Cameroon 2022.
