Chidera Ejuke is rooting for the Super Eagles to beat Rwanda and Zimbabwe in their upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying fixtures.
Ejuke was not included in the 23-man squad unveiled by head coach Eric Chelle this week.
Despite his omission, the Sevilla star has backed his compatriot to get the job done in both games.
“We have a lot of players in Nigeria, and believe me, at the end of the day it’s the coach’s decision, and he knows what he’s doing,” he told Lacolina de Nervion.
” So, for me, if I get the opportunity to go there, I’ll always be happy to represent my country. I wish the boys the best and, obviously, I’ll be watching as well, and I hope they win the matches.”
The Super Eagles will be away to the Amavubi of Rwanda at the Amahoro Stadium, Kigali on Friday, March 21.
The three-time African champions will host the Warriors of Zimbabwe four days later at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo.
