Super Eagles to win next AFCON – Yobo

Former Super Eagles captain Joseph Yobo is confident that Nigeria can win the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, citing the team’s quality and growing cohesion.

Yobo, who is Morocco as one of the assistants for the draw holding Monday evening said this while speaking to journalist Babatunde Ojora.

He said the current squad has what it takes to go all the way, having already shown their potential at the last AFCON.

“We have a good crop of a new generation of young players that have been together for a while, so, I don’t think that understanding is a problem for them,” Yobo said.

The Super Eagles finished as runners-up at the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast, narrowly missing out on the title. Yobo believes that experience will serve as motivation for the team to go one step further in 2025.

“We have shown that at the last AFCON, we were very unlucky not to win. So, if we can build on that momentum, and build on it further, then I think we can get to the final and hopefully win it this time,” he added.

The Super Eagles have been drawn in Pot 1 and will discover their group-stage opponents for the 2025 AFCON scheduled for December this year to January next year.
