Meanwhile Angola has officially hired former Senegal Coach and Afcon winner, Aliou Cisse.

African sides really gearing up for 2026 football battles.

He left Libya not quite long.

35 years ago as young players in Belgium

Sunday Oliseh & Victor Ikpeba

Oliseh joined in 1991, Ikpeba 1989 (reason he was able to speak their language already in this 1991 video?)

Oliseh went on to play for Ajax, Juve, Dortmund, etc and Ikpeba Monaco, Dortmund etc

Good one, please he shouldn't end up like Onyekuru o.

TheSuperNerd:
Nwokem, dont you want vengeance on that 99-1 vs India? We must do our own back ooo. We must score 101.

TheSuperNerd:
As we all know, aside the Poland & Portugal Friendlies, we can indeed look forward to the Unity Cup.

We gave Benjamin Frederick a chance at this tourney. Who is the next rookie we gonna see?

Millwall winger Femi Azeez has been shortlisted for the 2025–26 EFL Championship Player of the Season award following a spectacular campaign .

Eric Chelle and NFF must move in quickly.

Uzoho is pleased to read this:

Kog45:
Doc,good that we have Nwabali and Okoye,I don't see Okonkwo giving them tough fight for number one position...fact Okonkwo have been watching is not better than Uzoho and Adeleye,the only minus in Adeleye is his height....as I said in one of my comment you quoted I just hope he improve like Okoye

Flying Eagles forward, Charles Adah Agada, 19 scored his 1st senior goal for NK Istra in their 1-3 loss vs Hajdul Split today in the Croatian Supersport HNL.

His goal here:

Another young Nigerian forward scores his first pro goal in Europe! Take a bow Charles Agada 🇳🇬!

The 19 y/o came off the bench to score in Croatian club NK Istra's 1-3 defeat to Hajduk.

Agada is at the former club of Salim Lawal, who recently transferred to Viktoria Plzeň 🇨🇿. pic.twitter.com/hKUCLVMyma

Same right midfield/CM/Double pivot support tendencies... Insane workrate and off-the-ball engine.

I no n'ime Mmuo... 🤝🏿👌🏽😄

123jamessmith:
Why nobody is talking about David Ozoh of Derby. Apart from Ndidi and onyeka, there's no other good midfielders.
I think the coach need to bring him to the team, he's not a bad player.
If he's invited he will come.

Damioduso1:
Next is Michael Kayode of Breford

123jamessmith:
The NFF still need to do more on recruiting dual players.
Country like Senegal, morroco, even congo have been recruiting dual players.
We need quality player's in the team, if not, we will continue to be behind Country like morroco and Senegal.
Senegal has one of the best team in the world.
I don't know how they attract player's, yet Nigeria cannot get dual player's.
Please, we still need Tosin of Chelsea in the team.

TheSuperNerd:
According to the CIES, Central Midfield talent David Moses, 22y/o ranks number 1 (#1) in Europe across 40 top league divisions as the most hardworking U-23 Central midfielder per sprints per 30mins, out of possession.

He even outranks Brighton's Carlos Baleba. A true testament to David Moses' engine and intense off-the-ball work and pitch coverage.

A hardworker like Antwerp's Alhassan Yusuf (before MLS called) but David Moses' workrate looks even superior to Alhassan's.

Lol I don't work for any academy, so I didn't discover anybody

I saw him on X, liked him and reported him here when he got signed by AIK.

Predator87:
Usor should have been called up instead of Yira Soor.

TheSuperNerd:
Samuel Isife, Igoh Ogbu, and David Moses all in the starting XI for Slavia Prague in their Czech Liga fixture away at Banik Ostrava.

Abdullahi Bewene, 21 starts too for Ostrava.

Mubarak Emma Suleiman, 18 on the bench for Slavia.

TheSuperNerd:
According to Ghana-Naija Ballers handle on X....

We are making moves on Michael Kayode. The Chelle move
