Samuel Chukwueze has said the Super Eagles are fully focused and ready to pursue their goal of winning the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Nigeria will resume their campaign for a fourth continental title on Monday when they face Mozambique in Fes. Eric Chelle’s side goes into the round of 16 encounter as favourites against a Mozambican team appearing in the AFCON knockout stage for the first time.
Chukwueze was one of Nigeria’s standout performers in the 3–1 win over Uganda in their final group match, recording two assists with his pace, direct runs and creativity.
The AC Milan winger, currently on loan at Fulham, spoke to reporters during the team’s official training session on Sunday, expressing confidence in the squad’s unity and determination.
“We are very calm and we know we are ready to face any team,” Chukwueze said. “Everyone is prepared to give everything, including the players on the bench. It doesn’t matter who plays. From the last three games, you can see that the team is ready to push towards our objective, which is winning the AFCON title.”
