Nigeria’s foes in Thursday’s 2026 World Cup playoff in Morocco, the Panthers of Gabon, effectively began their preparations for the crucial qualifier today in Rabat.
A report in the Gabonese Press Agency (GPA), monitored by People&Politics, stated that about 10 additional internationals hit camp, as of press time.
Some of them were Olympique Marseille hitman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, N. Lémina, Averlant, Oyono, Ecuéle, Do Marcolino, Openda, and Moussounda.
“Further arrivals are expected, notably that of Denis Bouanga,” GPA wrote.
Thirty-year-old Bouanga plays as a winger and forward for Major League Soccer (MLS) side Los Angeles FC.
The Panthers held their first training session at 5pm today.
