Troost Ekong explains decision to retire from Super Eagles

Former Super Eagles captain William Troost Ekong has explained why he chose to retire from international football ahead of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.​ The 32 year old centre back officially ended almost a decade of service to Nigeria on Thursday, even though he was named in coach Eric Chelle’s provisional squad for next year’s AFCON.​ Troost Ekong said he felt it was the right moment to step aside and allow a younger generation of defenders to take over, noting that the team already has strong leaders who are ready to carry the mantle.​ He described his decision as part of a natural progression, adding that there is “an art in knowing when to step away”, even if part of him would have loved to lift the AFCON trophy and play at one more World Cup.​ The […]

Benjamin Fredrick ruled out of AFCON 2025

Super Eagles defender Benjamin Fredrick has been ruled out of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after suffering a knee injury during a training session with his club. The setback is a major blow for Nigeria, as the youngster was one of the standout performers in the country’s unsuccessful bid to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.​ Fredrick, who is on the books of English club Brentford, is currently on loan at Belgian side Dender FC for the 2025–26 season to gain first-team experience. He has been a regular under Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle since making his debut against Jamaica at the Unity Cup earlier this year.​ Such has been his impact that he displaced team captain William Troost-Ekong from the starting lineup during the last round of World Cup qualifiers. The 20-year-old centre-back was widely expected to be […]
