Nigeria ready to win ‘dream’ Afcon – Osimhen

Nigeria’s national football team is gearing up for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) with high hopes of bringing home the trophy. Star striker Victor Osimhen has expressed his confidence in the team’s abilities and believes they have what it takes to win the tournament.

Osimhen, who plays for Italian club Napoli, has been in top form recently and is seen as a key player for Nigeria’s Afcon campaign. The 23-year-old has scored crucial goals for his country in the past and will be looking to lead them to glory in the upcoming tournament.

Speaking to reporters, Osimhen said, “It has always been a dream of mine to win the Africa Cup of Nations with Nigeria. I believe we have a strong team and the talent to make that dream a reality.”

Nigeria is no stranger to success in the Afcon, having won the tournament three times in the past. However, it has been over two decades since their last triumph in 2013, and the team is hungry for victory once again.

With Osimhen leading the line, Nigeria will be hoping to emulate the success of past generations and establish themselves as a dominant force in African football once again. The striker’s form and leadership will be crucial to their chances of success in the tournament.

Head coach Gernot Rohr has also expressed his confidence in the team, stating that they are ready to compete with the best teams in Africa and that they have been working hard to improve in all areas of their game.

The Afcon is set to take place in January 2022 in Cameroon, and Nigeria will be looking to make a strong statement in the tournament. Fans of the Super Eagles will be hoping that Osimhen and his teammates can deliver on their promise and bring home the coveted trophy once again.
