LAGOS Darron Lee Jets Jersey , May 7 (Xinhua) -- Nigeria's Super Eagles head coach Stephen Keshi has released a 30-man provisional list for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.


Striker Ike Uche was the biggest casualty in the list that was made public late Tuesday.


Uche, who plays for Spanish club Villarreal, was excluded with Leon Balogun, Eagles newly-discovered defender who plies his football trade with German club Fortuna Dusseldorf.


Bright Dike ArDarius Stewart Jets Jersey , U.S.-based Eagles striker who scored vital goals for the Eagles in the friendly games against Catalonia and Italy was also missing in the list.

Keshi released the list to newsmen in Abuja after the Nigeria Football Association (NFA) Technical Committee's meeting.

The coach said a final 23-man list for the World Cup would be announced on June 2 as the invited players were expected to arrive the team's camp in England on May 25.


Keshi said this would enable the team to prepare for the international friendly against Scotland.
