Nigeria Lineup vs Egypt; No Osimhen or Salah in This Blockbuster Showdown

Nigeria Lineup vs Egypt: Who will be in Nigeria Starting XI?

Having missed out on qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the Nigeria National Football Team will be keen to get over the line and pocket a trophy at the AFCON. With the majority of their players yet to travel from Europe due to club commitments, Nigeria boss Éric Chelle will likely put a second-string playing XI. They will still be a force to reckon with, as they have a host of big names.

Victor Osimhen and Victor Moses are officially ruled out but are expected to join the squad in the later stages of the preparations for the AFCON. In their absence, Chidera Ejuke, Akor Adams, and Paul Onuachu are expected in the Nigeria Starting XI vs Egypt.
