The Super Eagles begin preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign with 20 players already in camp ahead of upcoming matches. Nigerian outlet Vanguard reports that the players are in camp before a Friday match against Madagascar.
Daily Post Nigeria adds that the camp is based in Ikot Ekpene at the Four Point By Sheraton Hotel and opened on Monday for the team’s qualifying fixtures against Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau. Both reports indicate that head coach Éric Chelle, his assistants, and other backroom staff are part of the camp arrangement. The outlets differ mainly in how they describe the schedule details: Vanguard highlights the immediate Friday clash with Madagascar, while Daily Post Nigeria also includes the subsequent Guinea-Bissau match in its overview of the qualification run.
