Super Eagles to camp in Egypt for AFCON 2025

The Super Eagles have officially chosen Egypt as their training base ahead of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Team officials explained that Egypt provides the right climate, facilities, and competitive environment needed to prepare the squad for the tournament. The camp is expected to help the players settle early and build strong team chemistry.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) stated that the decision followed careful evaluation of several countries. Egypt was picked because of its top-class stadiums, well-equipped training centers, and easy travel access to Morocco, the host nation. The NFF believes this will give the team a smooth transition into the competition.

Coaching staff also highlighted that camping in Egypt will allow the players to train without distractions and focus fully on tactics, fitness, and teamwork. They aim to ensure the squad is mentally and physically ready by the time AFCON kicks off.

Fans are optimistic that an early and well-structured camp will boost Nigeria’s chances of having a strong performance at the tournament. Many supporters see this preparation as a step in the right direction as the Super Eagles aim to reclaim the AFCON title.
