Two names have emerged as likely options: + + [Henry Ani](https://forums.vrsimulations.com/wiki/index.php/User:TorstenCoombe66) Ozoemena (Enyimba’s first-choice keeper) + Mustapha Lawal (Shooting Stars’ standout shot-stopper) + +The [Super Eagles](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/interviews/champions-league-spot-a-big-motivation-for-forest-awoniyi/) will begin their qualification campaign away to Rwanda on March 21, before hosting Zimbabwe in Uyo on March 25. +

Editorial +
+
The [inclusion](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/match-previews-and-reviews/) of an NPFL goalkeeper in the Super Eagles squad is a positive step for Nigerian football. It rewards home based players and highlights the growing quality of goalkeepers in the domestic league. +
+
With Stanley Nwabali’s AFCON success proving that NPFL players can shine on the international stage, this move could more clubs to invest in developing local talent. +
+
However, the [decision](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/football-culture/ahmed-musas-2024-earnings-unveiled-astonishing-net-worth-revealed/) to keep the goalkeeper’s identity a secret raises speculation. The Super Eagles [coaching staff](https://wavedream.wiki/index.php/User:FaustoUzn013837) must ensure the best in-form option is chosen, as goalkeeping errors have cost Nigeria vital points in previous qualifiers. +
+
Did You Know? + + Stanley Nwabali was Nigeria’s starting goalkeeper at AFCON 2023, earning widespread praise for his performances. + Nigeria has historically relied on foreign-based goalkeepers, making this a rare opportunity for NPFL shot-stoppers. + Henry Ani Ozoemena and Mustapha Lawal have both impressed in the NPFL this season, keeping multiple clean sheets. + The Super Eagles are currently fifth in their qualification group, making the upcoming matches [must-win](http://mediawiki.copyrightflexibilities.eu/index.php?title=User:TIRRobyn96815) games. + Nigeria’s last World Cup appearance was in 2018, missing out on Qatar 2022 after failing to qualify. + +
