Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, has pledged to give his all to secure Nigeria’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

In his speech, Chelle expressed gratitude for the opportunity. “I want to thank my agent, the NFF, the NSC, and all Nigerians for this big opportunity.
Coaching the Super Eagles of Nigeria is an incredible job, and I do not take this appointment lightly. I’m overjoyed and committed to doing my absolute best,” he said.

I understand the expectations of Nigerians and will work diligently with my team to achieve our shared goal of World Cup qualification.”
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
