The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is working on modalities to have the Super Falcons camp in Spain ahead of the 2024 Olympic Games.
The Super Falcons and Zambia will represent Africa in the women’s football event at Paris 2024.
Randy Waldrum’s charges are making a return to the Olympics for the first time in 16 years thanks a nervy 1-0 aggregate triumph over reigning African champions South Africa in April.
According to NigeriaFootball.ng, the NFF want the team to camp in Spain in order for the players to familiarise themselves with the weather conditions in Paris.
The former African champions will engage in a friendly a day before the departure from Spain.
They are scheduled to camp in the European country from 5 to 16 July. READ ALSO:
