Eric Chelle Raises Concerns Over Super Eagles' Prep Time
Eric Chelle, the coach of the Super Eagles, has voiced significant concerns regarding the limited preparation time for their upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Guinea-Bissau. The match is scheduled to take place at the Estádio Nacional 24 de Setembro in Bissau.
Following their victory over Madagascar, the Super Eagles conducted a recovery session in Uyo on Saturday and intensified their preparations with an additional training session on Sunday. Chelle highlighted that the FIFA window restricts training sessions, stating, “We didn’t have enough training sessions to work a lot.” He also mentioned that the team had to travel, which further limited their tactical preparation.
Additionally, he expressed worries about the physical condition of player George Ilenikhena ahead of the fixture, with at least two other players expected to undergo fitness tests before the match.
