Nigeria's Super Eagles face a setback as midfielder Raphael Onyedika is doubtful for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Benin. Onyedika suffered an injury while playing for Club Brugge, raising concerns about his availability for the crucial matches.

The medical team will assess his condition, with hopes that he can recover in time to join the national team. Head coach Eric Chelle may need to consider alternatives like Wilfred Ndidi and Frank Onyeka to fill the midfield position.
