Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong has named four leaders in Eric Chelle’s side.

The former Watford defender said during Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying semi-final playoff 4-1 triumph against Gabon on Thursday.

Recall that goals from Akor Adams, Chidera Ejuke, and Victor Osimhen (2) secured Nigeria the victory versus Gabon in Rabat, Morocco.

The Super Eagles won the game despite Gabon’s goal from Mario Lemina being insufficient.

The World Cup playoff final between the Super Eagles and DR Congo will now take place on Sunday.

Following Nigeria’s victory over Gabon, Troost-Ekong told reporters (via Victor Modo) that the Super Eagles are led by players like Victor Osimhen, Alex Iwobi, Wilfred Ndidi, and Moses Simon.

“We have multiple leaders in this team. Victor Osimhen is a leader in his own right, and we also have Wilfred Ndidi, Alex Iwobi, and Moses Simon,” Troost-Ekong said.

“We have players who are really coming of age and showing what they can do.”
