The Seychelles will take 20 players to Mozambique for the Cosafa Castle Cup Group A competition against the host nation, Madagascar and Zimbabwe.
Coach Raoul Shungu’s has finalised his line-up for the mini tournament with the late inclusion of the uncapped midfielder Achille Henriette, who turns 20 on the eve of the tournament.
All of the Seychelles’ footballers are home-based.
The Pirates last year upset hosts Namibia in their Cosafa Castle Cup mini tournament in Windhoek but lost to Zimbabwe in their deciding game.
