Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle is reportedly set to drop Cyriel Dessers for Nigeria's last round of matches in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
Nigeria will face Gernot Rohr's Benin Republic side and Lesotho in their last two matches in the qualifying series, as they look to end their campaign on a high note after a disappointing start.
Eric Chelle will reportedly assemble a strong team as the Super Eagles push for at least a place in the playoffs.
According to OwnGoalNigeria, the Malian tactician is set to replace Terem Moffi with Panathinaikos forward Cyriel Dessers.
Dessers, 30, was named in the 23-man squad for last month's qualifiers against Rwanda and South Africa.
There could also be a potential return for FC Porto full-back Zaidu Sanusi.
The Super Eagles are currently third in Group C with 11 points, six points adrift of leaders South Africa.
