The Super Eagles currently languish in sixth place in Group C with only three points from four games, trailing leaders Rwanda, South Africa, and Benin by four points.
Iwobi, who has been in exceptional form for Fulham this season, is a crucial player for the Super Eagles. His seven goals and three assists in the Premier League highlight his importance to the team.
Ndidi, known for his defensive prowess, has also shown an improved attacking output, contributing 12 goals and assists last season and five this season.
Chelle also visited Moses Simon, whose creativity has been a bright spot for Nantes in Ligue 1 with six assists this season.
These visits are part of Chelle’s strategy to foster a strong team spirit and motivate the players for the upcoming challenges. The Super Eagles face a critical juncture in their World Cup qualification campaign and will need to be at their best to overcome these hurdles.
