AFCON 2025: It’s a relief to be back in Super Eagles — Francis Uzoho

 Francis Uzoho has said it is a relief for him to be back in the Super Eagles after making the final 28-man squad for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. Uzoho has been out of the Super Eagles for long since Stanley Nwabali became the undisputed first choice. His inclusion in both the 55-man provisional squad and the final 28-man Super Eagles list for the AFCON came as a surprise to many. Speaking after arriving at the Super Eagles camp in Cairo, Egypt, Uzoho told the teams media: I was filled with joy, a joy I cannot express. It was a relief to know that I am coming back to be with the boys and to have that same feeling we use to have before and to represent Nigeria which is the most important thing. On what he missed while he was away from the team, he said: I missed quite a lot, I think I missed the boys to be honest. I missed the vibe in the camp because weve been quite a lot together. I think the most noticeable thing I missed is the boys. We do chat once in a while, we check up on each other, I have my own colleagues Im quite close to, but in general, I do reach out to the boys. The post AFCON 2025: Its a relief to be back in Super EaglesFrancis Uzoho appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
