 AFCON 2027 qualifiers: Tanzania coach names 24-man squad for Super Eagles double-header

Tanzania head coach Miguel Gamondi has unveiled a 24-man squad for his side's 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The squad is dominated by players plying their trade in the Tanzania Premier League.

Defending league champions Yanga FC and Azam FC contributed five players each. Local sides Kagera Sugar and Singida Black Stars also contributed one player each.

Novatus Miroshi who plays in the Turkish Super Lig for Goztepe, Cyprian Kachewele of Ukraine's Kryvbas, and FC Dallas' Bernard Kamongo are some of the foreign-based professionals included in the squad by the gaffer.

The Taifa Stars lost 2-0 to Guinea-Bissau in their opening fixture in the qualifying series, before battling to a 1-1 draw against Madagascar in the second game.

Gamondi's side will be away to the Super Eagles for a matchday three encounter at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Friday, November 17.

The two sides are scheduled to meet again in Dar es Salaam four days later.
