He said: “We are leaving by 6.30 p.m. on Friday. The flight is two hours and we will be back immediately after the game on Sunday.’’
Ibitoye revealed that the Eagles do not have any injury concern except Solomon Kwambe who has been replaced.
“There are no injury worries. The only player out of the team is Solomon Kwambe who has been replaced by Etim Matthew of Rangers International FC, following his injury in the first leg encounter”.
Ibitoye said Sunday Oliseh would be in-charge of the game against the Etalons adding that all the 24 players in camp might travel to Ouagadougou since the team would travel through a chartered flight.
According to the media officer, Oliseh could still go to Burkina Faso with only the 18 players for the match.
Meanwhile the League Management Company (LMC) has announced a modified fixture list for the remaining games of the 2014/15 Glo Premier League season.
The change was effected due to the CHAN 2016 qualifier against Burkina Faso to be played on Sunday October 25.
