Tyronne Ebuehi is the new arrival in the Super Eagles camp in Garoua, ahead of the 2021 AFCON holding in Cameroon.
Ebuehi’s arrival was confirmed by the Eagles’ media officer Babafemi Raji on Saturday morning.
This brings the number of Eagles players to 26 with Jamilu Collins and Odion Ighalo still being expected.
