Osimhen and Nwabali Slam Super Eagles’ Treatment at Libyan Airport
Nigerian football stars Victor Osimhen and Stanley Nwabali expressed their disappointment over the treatment of the Super Eagles at Al Abraq International Airport in Libya. Osimhen criticized the situation as “inhumane” and highlighted the unfair treatment his team received.
He called on the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to take action since his teammates and officials remained stranded at the airport.
Nwabali revealed that the Super Eagles had been stuck for over 14 hours without food, water, or internet access, calling the experience “absolutely crazy.” Victor Boniface also voiced his frustrations, stating they lacked essentials during their long wait. The Nigerian delegation was on its way to Benghazi for an important qualifier when their flight diverted to the small airport, typically used for Hajj operations. The Libyan Football Federation did not provide assistance, and CAF has yet to respond to the issue.
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.”
