AFCON 2025 Babangida Ikpeba back Super Eagles to restore pride

Atlanta 1996 Olympic gold medallists Tijani Babangida and Victor Ikpeba say the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco is a crucial chance for the Super Eagles to repair Nigeria’s football image after failing to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They noted that missing the World Cup for a second straight time still hurts players, officials and fans, making AFCON the key opportunity to restore national pride.​ Babangida told Tribalfootball he was disappointed with the Super Eagles’ display in the playoff defeat to DR Congo, saying the Congolese looked better organised and more determined on the day. He believes winning AFCON would help heal the emotional wounds of supporters who were left devastated by that loss.​ He is confident Nigeria can reach the final and possibly end their 12 year wait for a fourth continental crown. However, he […]

Atalanta set €50m price tag for Lookman

Atalanta have set a €50m, about N84 billion, asking price for Nigeria international Ademola Lookman amid strong interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. The Istanbul club, who already have fellow Nigerian star Victor Osimhen in their squad, want to sign the 2024 African Footballer of the Year in the January transfer window.​ According to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Atalanta have made it clear they will only let Lookman leave if their €50m valuation is met and are not willing to lower the fee. Reports suggest the winger is open to joining his compatriot and Super Eagles teammate Osimhen in Turkey.​ The 28-year-old has found this season challenging after pushing for a move to Inter Milan in the summer. He was one of Europe’s standout wingers last term, scoring 20 goals in 41 appearances, but has managed just two goals in […]

UCL: Osimhen to Miss Gala’s UCL Tie Against Saint-Gilloise

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen will be absent for Galatasaray’s UEFA Champions League fixture against Belgium’s Union Saint-Gilloise due to a minor hamstring tear picked up in international duty. Osimhen was substituted off at halftime during Nigeria’s World Cup qualifier with DR Congo and returned to his club for immediate treatment. Initial scans confirm a minor injury expected to sideline him for several days. Osimhen, top scorer in the competition with six goals, will be re-evaluated on Friday to determine his availability for upcoming fixtures, including the crucial Turkish league derby with Fenerbahce. He was seen supporting Galatasaray from the stands and exiting with teammate Henry Onyekuru. His absence opens the opportunity for rivals Harry Kane, Erling Haaland, and Kylian Mbappé, each only one goal behind, to overtake him in the Champions League scoring charts.
