Nigeria’s Moses Simon Confident Super Eagles Can Qualify for 2026 World Cup Despite Slow Start
Nantes and Nigeria winger Moses Simon has expressed optimism that the Super Eagles have the quality needed to secure a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, despite their challenging position in the qualifiers.
With four games played and no victories yet, Nigeria sits in fifth place in their group, holding just three points. However, Simon remains confident in the team’s abilities.
“We have the quality, we have what it takes to win,” the 29-year-old told BBC Sport Africa. “We don’t believe that we are not going to the World Cup.”
He also mentioned the impact of missing key players in recent matches and believes their return next year will boost the team’s chances.
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
