Chelle Says Super Eagles Can Still Qualify for World Cup if They Stay Strong
Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, remains hopeful that Nigeria can still secure a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup despite a rough start to the qualifiers. The team, currently sitting fourth in their group and trailing leaders South Africa by six points, faces a tough road ahead. With four games left, Chelle believes there’s still enough time to turn things around.
Nigeria’s recent victory at the Unity Cup in London has given the squad a much-needed morale boost. As they gear up for the crucial September and October qualifiers, Chelle is urging his players to raise their game. Reviewing their Unity Cup performance, he said, “We scored goals, created chances, and showed positive signs. What matters is playing as one – both in attack and defence.”
He stressed the need for more growth, not just in skill but in mindset. “We need to keep improving physically and mentally,” he said. “We have to become real warriors on the pitch.” The Super Eagles will host Rwanda in Uyo before heading to South Africa for their next qualifiers.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.

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.”
French footballer Kylian Mbappé has spoken on which player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will score more goals at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It can be noted that the FIFA World Cup will begin on Thursday and will be co-hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
The player picked Lionel Messi to score more goals than Ronaldo during the tournament.
