The list of players called up, presented by the national coach this Tuesday, is made up of names such as Childe Dundão, Eduardo Simão, Cléusio Castro, Jerónimo Luís, Marcelo João and Jonatão Jungu.
They are also joined by Aboubalar Gakou, Jilson Bango, Kevin Kokila, João Fernandes, Macahi Braz and Gerson Gonçalves.
The call-up includes some new players, such as the debut of the wingers Marcelo João, from 1.º de Agosto, and Eduardo Simão, from Petro de Luanda, writes Angop.
Furthermore, the absence of Sílvio de Sousa and Bruno Fernando (who is adapting at Real Madrid, with whom he signed a contract until the end of the season) is also notable.
With a trip scheduled to Tripoli, Libya, for Wednesday, the team will enter the scene next Friday to compete in Guinea. On February 22nd, they have a game scheduled against Kenya and the following day they will face Tunisia.
According to Angop, these games only serve to fulfill the calendar, since Angola is qualified for Afrobasket 2025, as host, since the competition will take place between July 25 and August 3 in Luanda, Benguela, Namibe and Huíla.
