Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, has expressed confidence that his team is ready to make a strong run at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Nigerian team, which has won the prestigious tournament three times, is set to face tough opponents in Group C, with Tunisia, Uganda, and Tanzania as their group mates.

Chelle, who took over as head coach just earlier this month, acknowledged the difficulty of the task ahead, knowing that each of the 24 teams in the competition brings formidable talent and experienced coaches.

However, he remains optimistic, stating that his team is highly motivated and determined to go for the title.

“I understand the challenges ahead, but I believe we have a squad hungry for revenge, and I’m also out for revenge. This will make the journey exciting,” Chelle said.
