Super Eagles Stars Threaten Boycott of AFCON Friendly vs Egypt Over Scheduling Concerns

Super Eagles players, including Victor Osimhen, are considering boycotting the AFCON friendly against Egypt as European clubs retain players until a week before the tournament. Concerns about player fatigue and injuries have been raised, with the Nigerian Football Federation receiving complaints.

Despite the challenges, the NFF is urging players to focus on the upcoming AFCON and target their fourth title. The match is part of the preparations for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, with Nigeria drawn in Group C alongside Tanzania, Tunisia, and Uganda.
