Abia Warriors defensive midfielder Innocent Godwin has been named in the Super Eagles B team (CHAN Eagles) ahead of the 2025 African Nations Championship qualifier against Ghana.

Godwin’s selection follows his impressive performances for Abia Warriors in the current Nigeria Premier Football League season, where he has started every match.

He joins 34 other players called up by head coach Augustine Eguavoen to prepare for the upcoming fixtures.

The first leg of the qualifier is scheduled for December 20-22, 2024, with the return leg taking place a week later. The aggregate winner will secure a spot in the 8th edition of the tournament, which is exclusively for players in domestic leagues across Africa.
