The Nigerian Super Eagles players are planning to stage a strike over unpaid winning bonuses for four matches against Uganda, Mozambique, Tanzania, and Tunisia.
As a result, the squad will reportedly not train tomorrow or travel to Marrakech, putting their AFCON 2025 quarter-final clash against Algeria at risk.
The players are demanding payment of their outstanding bonuses, which reportedly date back to previous tournaments.
This isn’t the first time the Super Eagles have gone on strike over unpaid bonuses, with similar incidents occurring in 2019 and 2025.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has acknowledged the dispute but hasn’t provided a timeline for resolving the issue.
The strike has sparked outrage among Nigerian fans, with many taking to social media to express their frustration and disappointment.
The Super Eagles’ next match against Algeria is scheduled for Saturday, and their participation hangs in the balance until the dispute is resolved.
