Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has cautioned Nigeria’s Round of 16 opponents at the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, that he is unconcerned about who they face.
He maintained that the Nigerian team is fully prepared for their last-16 challenge at the tournament.
The 27-year old Galatasaray star made the remark after captaining Nigeria to a 3–1 victory over Uganda on Tuesday.
Eric Chelle’s men will face either Ivory Coast, Cameroon or Mozambique in the Round of 16.
When asked about Nigeria’s next opponent in the knockout stage, Osimhen told reporters, “I don’t care about our next opponent in the Round of 16. Anybody can come. We are ready for whoever comes next.”
The Round of 16 is scheduled to commence this weekend at various venues across Morocco.
