Onyeka Remains Hopeful that Super Eagles Can Qualify for 2026 World Cup
Frank Onyeka remains hopeful about the Super Eagles’ chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, despite their struggles in the qualifiers so far.
With just one win, four draws, and one loss in their six matches, the Eagles are currently sitting in fourth place in Group C, trailing leaders South Africa by six points.
However, Onyeka believes there’s still a chance for the team to turn things around. “I know the situation is tough, but we still have a shot. If we win our next four games, we can make it,” the Augsburg midfielder said in an interview with Oma Sports.

The club filed misstated accounts and concealed the true state of its finances from its auditors and football regulators.
– Manchester City was significantly in breach of both the Premier League’s and UEFA’s spending limits.
– During the Premier League’s investigation, Manchester City committed multiple breaches of its duties of co-operation and utmost good faith towards the League (three of the four alleged breaches were upheld).”

“Last year, for me, Cubarsí was the best young player in the world. Either the Kopa award or the Ballon d’Or should go to him. There’s no difference between us.
“When I won it, I told him that he would be next. If he doesn’t win it for whatever reason, I will give it to him.”
Popular footballer Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on retirement and shares how he actually thought of retiring from international football after the 2026 World Cup.

He adds, “The young kids love me because they see me as an example, and that, for me, is the most important thing. I will continue to do that even when I retire after 10 years.”
