Wilfred Ndidi has charged Super Eagles players to bring this year’s Africa Cup of Nations trophy home.
The Eagles will be seeking a fourth AFCON title when they take on hosts Côte d’Ivoire.
The Ivorians endured a disappointing campaign in the group stage but managed to advance to the final.
Ndidi failed to be part of the Eagles squad to the tournament due to injury.
The midfielder, however, sent a good luck message to the players.
“Though I can’t be on the pitch with my brothers, my heart is with them as they play in the AFCON final tonight!” he wrote on X.
“Sending all my support and best wishes. Let’s bring that trophy home! Good luck! .”
While the Eagles last featured in the AFCON final in 2013, the Ivorians reached the final in 2015.
