Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, and Victor Boniface were among the Super Eagles’ star players who attended their first training session ahead of their 2026 World Cup qualifier with Rwanda.
The team trained at one of Kigali, Rwanda, practice pitches on Tuesday.
This was Eric Chelle’s inaugural session as he was voted Super Eagles head coach in January.
The 22 candidates reduced to 23-man team have all checked into camp. Only Alhassan Yusuf will check in by tomorrow AM.
The Super Eagles take on Rwanda in Kigali on Friday, and then Zimbabwe on March 25 at Uyo’s Godswill Akpabio Stadium.
Nigeria is still unbeaten in four matches in the World Cup qualifier. The Eagles trail by one loss and three draws, ranking fifth position in Group C in the qualification.
The team must provide flawless performances in the remaining matches to improve their chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup in the United States.
