The team is under the guidance of Eric Sekou Chelle, who recently replaced Daniel Ogunmodede as the head coach of the Super Eagles B team.
Strategic Outlook
Nigeria, runners-up in the 2018 CHAN, have been drawn into Group D, featuring Senegal, Sudan, and Congo. The squad’s focus has been on tactical cohesion and team unity under the “Ijaball” philosophy pioneered during Ogunmodede’s tenure.
Coach Chelle and his team will now prepare intensively ahead of the tournament commencing in August 2nd across Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. Nigeria are expected to open their CHAN campaign against Senegal in Zanzibar before moving to Dar es Salaam for their final group match.
