Tottenham goalkeeper, Joshua Oluwayemi has arrived at the Super Eagles camp ahead of tonight’s international friendly game against Mexico.
The former England youth international was invited to the squad after captain Ikechukwu Ezenwa pulled out of the team, due to injury.
Oluwayemi arrived at the camp in the early hours of today after the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) fast-tracked his national exempt papers.
The 20-year-old recently described his invitation to the Super Eagles set as a dream come true and said he’s looking forward to play3 a part in the game.
Oluwayemi’s arrival takes the number of goalkeepers in the squad to three, after Enyimba FC’s John Noble and Lobi Stars’ Stanley Nwabali.
Meanwhile, the match will kick off at 8 pm LA time tomorrow (4 am in Nigeria on Sunday).
