The Algerian Football Federation says the list of players invited for the 2018 World Cup qualifier match against Nigeria will be revealed on Tuesday, November 1.
The football federation says new manager Georges Leekens would unveil his plans for the Desert Foxes after the roster is announced.
Reports say regular team members such as Riyad Mahrez, Islam Slimani, Yacine Brahimi, Sofiane Feghouli and Adlene Guedioura are in the squad.
They added that Adam Ounas who was recently cleared by FIFA was also listed.
The Foxes are expected to arrive in Nigeria on November 9 for the game scheduled for November 12 at the ‘Nest of Champions’ in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital.
Leekens took over as the Desert Foxes’ coach after the Algerian football governing body sacked Milovan Rajevac.
Rajevac was relieved of his duties on Tuesday, October 11, following the team’s 1-1 draw against Cameroun.
