Watford striker Isaac Success has been handed another opportunity to make his first appearance for Nigeria, as the Super Eagles prepare to play two friendly matches against Senegal and Burkina Faso in England this month.
Success, 21, was first called up last year by Nigeria for the opening 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Zambia, but withdrew from the squad with injury, along with Victor Moses.
The forward was subsequently left out of previous games, with some reports suggesting he was being "punished" for rejecting the call-up because he was asked to pay his own way down and wait for refund. Those reports were later denied by the NFF.
Success is not the only player being given a second chance by Nigeria. ADO Den Haag defender Tyronne Ebuehi, who also rejected a call-up around the same time claiming the "time was not right," has also been handed another opportunity.
The duo will join 21 other players for the friendly matches at The Hive, home ground of Barnet Football Club.
Outside of a second chance, Hannover's Noel Joel Sanrenre Bazee has been handed a first call up. The forward qualifies to represent Nigeria through his father.
