FIFA Discuess The AFCON Qualifier Between Nigeria’s Super Eagles And Libya
FIFA Council member, Amaju Pinnick reveals the CAF verdict on the 2025 Africa cup of nations qualifier between the Nigerians super eagles and Libya will be announced “today or tomorrow’. The Super Eagles players and officials were held at the Al Abaq airport on their arrival for matchday four of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers. The team later returned to Nigeria after the delay.
The FIFA council, Pinnick, stated that the situation is being discussed among the council. He states that “CAF is taking this issue very seriously,” during an interview with Arise Television today. CAF President, Patrice Motsepe, personifies integrity and Pan-Africanism.
“We deliberated on it in our executive committee meeting. It was a subject of intense discussion. We pointed out the fact that this is very serious because anything could have happened (to the Super Eagles). So, CAF are taking the matter seriously and we’re not leaving any stone unturned.”
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
