Premier and Senior divisional players will make up the Fiji soccer side in a two-week tour to Samoa and Tonga at the end of the month.

National coach Lee Sterrey initially planned to select only the senior players for the tour but he wants to maintain the combination of the national side which dumped the India side in two friendly encounters earlier this year.

Sterrey said the tour was a good opportunity to exploit the combination once again.

He said players like Navua's Pita Bolatoga and Lautoka's Osea Vakatalesau formed a lethal striking combination and he wanted to make sure it was maintained.

Sterrey said the inclusion of these premier division players will also bring along confidence amongst the senior players who are going on their first international tour.

The tour would help Samoa and Tonga improved its FIFA rankings because they will play against a full-strength national side.

Fiji will play two senior and premier division clubs teams each in Samoa and Tonga.

Players like Ovini Duguca of Nadroga, Lorima Dau from Navua, Thomas Vulivuli, Labasa's Shamal Kumar and Rewa's Apenisa Turuva, Kamal Hassan and Marika Rodu are some of the premier division players identified for the tour.
