Super Eagles Interim Head Coach, Austine Eguavoen has defended the non- inclusion of more home-based players in his squad for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
Eguavoen included just one player, John Noble, a goalkeeper, with two-time African Champions Enyimba in his 28-Man squad for the competition.
The Eagles will open their 2021 AFCON Campaign next Tuesday against seven-time Champions Egypt.
Sudan and Guinea Bisau are the other teams in group D.
