Alex Iwobi

Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi has emphasized the team’s determination to secure a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup after their absence in Qatar 2022.

The Nigerian national team, three-time African champions, are firmly focused on clinching their place in the tournament set to be held across Mexico, Canada, and the USA.

With a crucial playoff semifinal against Gabon approaching, the squad is leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of victory.

Iwobi, a key figure in the Super Eagles lineup, expressed his optimism about the team’s chances.

“Our goal is clear—to fight for qualification. The World Cup is the pinnacle of football, and Nigeria should be there. We’ll give everything to make our nation proud,” he stated in an exclusive interview with Sporty TV.
