“Okoye is the number one choice for now. He has impressed in training and all things being equal will start against Sierra Leone, ” a reliable camp source told Completesports.com.

“Akpeyi’s late arrival has made things difficult for him and there is no way he will get nod ahead of Okoye especially with just one training session.

Okoye made his debut in Nigeria’s 1-1 friendly draw against five-time world champions Brazil.

He has been capped three times by Nigeria.
