Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle eyes 2025 AFCON glory

Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has expressed confidence in his team’s ability to compete for the title at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

The three-time African champions are set to face Tunisia, Uganda, and Tanzania in Group C. Despite acknowledging the challenges posed by the competition, Chelle remains optimistic.

“Yes, it’s going to be difficult to win because there are 24 very good teams and some very good coaches,” the 47-year-old told CAF’s official website. “I know I’ve got a team that’s out for revenge, and I’m out for revenge too, so we’re going to have a lot of fun.”

The Super Eagles will kick off their campaign against Tanzania’s Taifa Stars on Tuesday, December 23.
