Wolverhampton Wanderers Defender,Dominic Iorfa Jnr Set For Super EaglesFriendly Against Bolivia & Ghana.

  

Son of Dominc Iorfa ,Vice Chairman Lobi Stars and England Under-18 International, Dominic Iorfa Junior, will most likely be included in the Super Eagles squad for the upcoming friendly games against Bolivia and Ghana, sl10.ng reports.

Nigeria plays Bolivia in Uyo on March 26 before taking on Ghana three days later in two friendly games meant to keep the Eagles busy ahead of the qualifying series for the Africa Cup of Nations.

A top source at the Nigeria Football Federation told sl10.ng that the Wolverhampton Wanderers' defender is one of the players pencilled down to help revitalize the Super Eagles' defence ahead of the AFCON qualifiers.

"We have him in our plans, it's no secret he is doing well and our defence is in need of some competition. He will most certainly be called up and he might debut only if we are able to get a clearance from FIFA on time as he played for England at Under-18 level," the source told sl10.ng.

"He is young and a regular in same division (English Championship) like our preferred central defender Kenneth Omeruo, so we are confident he can cope if Omeruo can do it."

The 19-year-old, who recently won the award of the best young player in the English Championship has so far made 12 appearance for Wolves, earning praise for bringing calm and stability to a defence that was shipping in goals prior to his introduction.
