U-17 AFCON: Golden Eaglets change travel plans

Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets appear to have shelved their plans to train in Germany ahead of the 2023 Africa U-17 Cup of Nations.

This is as the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) failed to secure entry visas for the players and their officials.

Nduka Ugbade’s boys will now train for 10 days in a North African country before travelling to Algeria for the competition.

The Golden Eaglets have been camping in Abuja for the competition.

Nigeria will face Zambia, Morocco and South Africa in Group B.

The biennial competition will run from April 29 to May 19.
