Rivers Angels goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie and FC Robo defender Chidinma Okeke made Nigeria's 25-player provisional squad for 2019 All African Games in Morocco.

Nnadozie and Okeke helped Nigeria to the Last 16 at the 2019 Women's World Cup in France and were recalled to the U20 team by coach Christopher Danjuma for the showpiece.

The squad is dominated by home-based professional players who represented the nation at the 2018 U20 Women's World Cup in France last year, and won the 2019 Wafu Women's Cup.

Also invited are usual suspects like Ijamilusi Folashade, Akarekor Rita, Adebisi Saheed, Efih Peace, Amoo Bashirat and Monday Gift and Obia Christiana.
