Eric Chelle Warns Against Pairing Osimhen and Lookman for AFCON 2025
Former Super Eagles defender Eric Chelle cautioned coach Eric Chell against fielding Galatasaray forward Victor Osimhen and Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman together for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco. Chell had to bench Lookman in the last match due to a suspension, favoring Nigeria's former Villarreal star.
Osimhen has been in good form, scoring the highest goals during the CAF qualifiers. Chell is yet to finalize the 28-man squad for AFCON 2025, with doubts over goalkeeper Stanlei Nwabali's participation due to injury concerns.
