Super Eagles trio Kelechi Iheanacho, Ahmed Musa and Wilfred Ndidi were in joyous mood in Leicester City’s pre-season training on Tuesday.
The Nigerian contingent, who recently arrived in England after an extended holiday due to the World Cup, added glamour to the Foxes preparations.
Ndidi was pictured shoving his compatriots on his back in a tweet shared by the club.
The club will host Spanish giants Valencia on Wednesday.

The upcoming campaign promises to be an exciting one for the Nigerians.
Musa, who impressed in Russia with two goals, may finally get the chance to prove his worth following Riyad Mahrez’s switch to Manchester City.
With Jamie Vardy expected to miss the season’s opener, Iheanacho will take up that role and could keep hold of it should he nick in some goals.
Ndidi, meanwhile, won’t be losing sleep over any player as his place is all but certain.
Leicester will begin the campaign August 10 against Manchester United.
