Nigeria’s Super Eagles have suffered an injury setback ahead of their AFCON 2025 round of 16 match against Mozambique.

Only 25 players trained this Friday, with defender Ryan Alebiosu present but sidelined as he continues recovery from a leg injury.
Striker Cyriel Dessers has been ruled out of the tournament due to a thigh injury and has returned to his club, while midfielder Tochukwu Nnadi missed full training after falling ill.
Nigeria, winners of all Group C matches, will face Mozambique on Monday as they push for a fourth AFCON title.
