The Super Eagles of Nigeria have moved up one spot in the latest FIFA men’s rankings, which were released on Thursday.

This is the first ranking of 2025, and Nigeria jumped from 44th to 43rd place. However, the team dropped to sixth in Africa, with Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, Algeria, and Côte d’Ivoire leading the continent’s top five.

In the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers last month, the Super Eagles played two matches, winning 2-0 against Rwanda at the Amahoro Stadium in Kigali, but drawing 1-1 with Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.

Meanwhile, Argentina remains at the top of the global rankings, followed by Spain, France, England, and Brazil in the top five.
