Niger Tornadoes technical adviser, Kabiru Dogo has assured that his team will be ready for the start of the 2026-27 Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, season.
The Ikon Allah Boys will kick-start their campaign against Enyimba at the Bako Kotangora stadium in Minna on Sunday, 30 August.
Niger Tornadoes are currently taking part in a pre-season tournament in Katsina.
Dogo says his team will make the best use of the tournament.
“At the moment, I would say we are about 60 per cent ready,” Dogo told the club’s media.
“Those matches gave us a good opportunity to assess the players, work on their fitness and improve the cohesion of the team.
“We are going to use the pre-season tournament as the final phase of our preparation to fine-tune our strengths and identify areas where we need to make adjustments.
“Our target is to reach about 80 to 90 per cent before returning to Minna, where we will use the remaining period to prepare for our first home game.”
