NFF endorses Turkish Women's Cup and Morocco tours for Super Falcons

The Nigeria Football Federation have approved the invitational tours of Turkey and Morocco proposed for the country's senior women's national team.

The Super Falcons have not played a match since they were eliminated from the Olympic Games qualifiers by Cote d'Ivoire in October 2019 at the Agege Stadium in Lagos.

Despite not kicking the ball in 2020, the Super Falcons climbed one spot on the Fifa rankings to end an inactive year on 37th position in the world, while also retaining top spot in Africa.

To end the 14-month inactivity, NFF president Amaju Pinnick had revealed last week that his leadership were considering the involvement of the African champions in the Turkish Women's Cup.
