Former Nigerian footballer Tijani Babangida cautions coach Eric Chelle about depending too much on Victor Osimhen as Nigeria prepares for AFCON 2025. Babangida emphasizes the team's historical struggles without Osimhen, citing their poor performance in matches where he was absent.
Osimhen's impact on the team's success is evident, with his goal-scoring prowess being crucial for Nigeria's results. The upcoming AFCON campaign poses a challenge for Nigeria, with Babangida urging the team to not solely rely on Osimhen for victories.
