Azam FC attacking midfielder Idd Suleiman ‘Nado’ has been added to the Tanzania national team, Taifa Stars, squad travelling to Nigeria for a 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying match.
Nado, who was initially left out of the list of players called up to the Taifa Stars squad, has now been given the opportunity to join the team ahead of the important encounter against Nigeria’s Super Eagles.
His inclusion comes amid calls from various football stakeholders in the country who had urged the national team to consider him following his impressive performances for Azam FC.
This season, Nado has played a significant role for the Chamazi-based club, scoring a total of five goals across all competitions.
His ability to operate as an attacking midfielder, create chances and contribute goals could provide Taifa Stars with an additional attacking option ahead of the test against Nigeria.
