David Stockbrink Receives Flying Eagles Call-Up Ahead Of U-20 World Cup

Abuja, Nigerian youth sensation David Stockbrink has been invited to the Flying Eagles’ U-20 training camp, which is set to begin on August 18 in Abuja. The camp is in preparation for the upcoming FIFA U-20 World Cup in Chile in 2025.

The invitation, signed by Mohammed Maikano on behalf of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Secretary-General, calls for Stockbrink to join other prospective players as they begin their pre-tournament preparations.

This news comes as Stockbrink makes a triumphant return to action. In a recent warm-up match between Fortuna Sittard’s senior team and the U-21 side, he scored the opening goal and provided two assists, leading the senior team to a 2-0 victory. The young forward, who has been a standout for the club’s U-19 and U-21 teams since joining in January 2025, is now being considered for a spot on the senior team, which competes in the Dutch Eerste Divisie.

After the match, Stockbrink expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to represent his country. “I am so happy to receive this invitation to join the Flying Eagles camp for the World Cup,” he said. “I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to play for Nigeria and will do my best. I’m back in full fitness following my injury setback and will do my best in the colors of Nigeria.”
Stockbrink will join his teammates in Abuja when the camp officially opens on August 18.
