The former Everton star spent the 2020-21 season on loan at Turkish topflight side, Galatasaray, scoring five goals and five assists in 19 appearances for them.
However, his performances in Faraway Turkey aren't enough to earn him a spot in coach Gernot Rohr's 24-man revised list for the international friendly against Cameroon.
Despite breaking into the Super Eagles squad in 2017, the attacker has only played 11 games for his country in all competitions with just one goal credited to his name.
Though he was part of the team that won the bronze medal at the 2019 AFCON championship in Egypt, he was not a regular in coach Gernot Rohr's squad with the likes of Moses Simon, Samuel Chukwueze and a few others preferred over him.
Legit.ng earlier reported that the Nigerian Football Federation has commiserated with Super Eagles star Henry Onyekuru and his family over the demise of his mother who has passed on.
Onyekuru has been one of the best Nigerian forwards considering his styles of play for his club and also in the national team.
The 23-year-old was among the Super Eagles players who won bronze at the 2019 African Cup of Nations in Egypt where Nigeria beat Tunisia in the third-place match.
