Super Eagles Squad Revealed for 2026 FIFA WCQ Matches Against Lesotho and Benin Republic
Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has announced the squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier matches against Lesotho and Benin Republic. The Nigerian team received a qualification boost after FIFA deducted points from Lesotho for fielding an ineligible player, Teboho Mokoena.
With Nigeria now in a better position in the standings, the squad includes key players like Ademola Lookman, Akor Adams, and Semi Ajayi. The team will face Lesotho at the Peter Mokaba Stadium and Benin Republic at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium.
The matches are crucial for Nigeria's World Cup qualification hopes, with the team aiming to secure a spot in the tournament.
