“After they rest a while, they should engage in top grade friendly in order to keep the boys in better shape ahead of World Cup qualifiers which is crucial for us as a Nation,” he added.

The Three-time AFCON champions recently qualified for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon after topping Group L unbeaten. They qualified from a group that consists of Sierra Leone, Lesotho, and Benin.
