Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi says he plans to open his training camp for the 2014 CHAN in the first week of December.
Nigeria will be making its debut in the CHAN championship in South Africa next year.
“I am looking at the first week of December for us to open the CHAN camp” he said.
“But you know it’s my employers that would have the final say. So, I am hoping that all things being equal in December we would begin so that we can at least have four weeks of intensive preparation for the CHAN.”
Nigeria are drawn against hosts South Africa, Mali and Mozambique in the first round.
The competition for players in their respective local leagues will kick off on January 16.
A squad consisting of players drawn from the domestic league are due to take on Jordan in a friendly on Monday as part of the preparations for the CHAN.
