Super Eagles camp active as players begin to arrive for AFCONQ tie

No fewer than eight Super Eagles players have already arrived camp ahead of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Benin Republic.

Moses Simon, Frank Onyeka and Samuel Chukwueze are among the early arrivals in Abidjan.

Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, Amas Obasogie, Gabriel Osho, Raphael Onyedika and Bruno Onyemaechi are also in camp.

The matchday five fixture of the 2025 AFCON qualifying will be against the Cheetahs of Benin Republic, and a point from the game would be enough to seal Nigeria’s place.
