Thomas Dennerby has explained why Evelyn Nwabuoku has made Nigeria's provisional squad for the Women's World Cup.
The Super Falcons' 2015 World Cup captain was left out of the 2018 African Women's Cup of Nations in Ghana, the 2019 Chinese and Cyprus Women's Cup tournaments and the national camp in Spain.
However, the 33-year-old midfielder was recalled to the national team fold in March and later featured as a central defender at the 2019 WAFU Women's Cup in Abidjan.
Having successfully captained the country to regional success in Cote d'Ivoire, the gaffer gave his assessment of Nwabuoku in her new role.
