Amad was capped by the Elephants for the first time in 2021, and has so far made six appearances at international level.
He was recalled to head coach Emerse Fae’s group after a 15-month absence in June, as the 2023 African champions beat Zambia and Chad.
Another couple of wins during the October break would ensure a spot at the next tournament, which is being held in Morocco during December 2025 and January 2026.
