Three clubs feature heavily in Tahiti’s 23-man squad named for home and away Oceania Stage 3 World Cup qualifiers against Solomon Islands this month.

The leading Ligue 1 clubs AS Tefana, AS Central and AS Venus contribute all but one of the squad with New Caledonia-based midfielder Henri Caroine earning a recall from coach Ludovic Graugnard.

Graugnard will have all 23 available to select from for the home leg on 7 November (local time) at Stade Pater but the Toa Aito will only travel with 16 for the return leg in Honiara on 13 November.

The Solomon Islands squad is expected to be named on Monday.
