National Under-23 Dream Team 4 coach, Samson Siasia has revealed that the side will return home from this week's trip to Malaysia before going for the last phase of pre-Olympic Games camping in Portugal.
While disclosing his strategic tune-up programme ahead of the Games, the former Flying Eagles coach told brilafm.net that the team will also return to the country after camping in Portugal, before heading to China, to drop players who do not make the final list.
"We are not going straight to China from Malaysia, but the plan is that the team will return home. We should be back maybe around d the 26th or so, and then head out to Portugal.
"Even after that, we still plan to come home before going to China. We intend to keep the final list to ourselves for as long as possible, but those who are not going to China will be brought home with the team, before we eventually travel out," Sia 1 revealed.
The former Super Eagles attacker also allayed fears that the camp site will have an unfavorable weather, insisting that the summer season in Portugal will be the same that would prevail in China during the Games.
