The Super Eagles are set to commence their preparations for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) on December 10, 2025, as announced by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
The training camp will take place in the capital city of the host nation, Fez, Morocco. This marks the beginning of Nigeria’s journey in the tournament, where they are placed in Group C alongside Tunisia, Uganda, and Cameroon.
A notable inclusion in the squad is Sevilla forward Akor Adams, who is poised to make his long-awaited debut for the national team.
Adams, who has been in impressive form for his club, scoring crucial goals in La Liga, has previously been sidelined from international duty due to injury concerns.
However, with his recovery on track, he is now set to join the Super Eagles for the upcoming tournament.
The team will be under the guidance of newly appointed head coach Eric Chelle, who took over the reins earlier this year.
Chelle’s appointment has been met with optimism, as he brings a wealth of experience to the role. His leadership will be crucial as Nigeria aims to secure their fourth AFCON title.
