AFCON 2023: Adebayor predicts country to win trophy

Former Togo striker, Emmanuel Adebayor, has tipped Nigeria to win the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Adebayor stated this on Tuesday morning, during his visit to the Super Eagles team hotel in Abidjan.

The former Arsenal player expressed his support for the three-time African champions ahead of their second group game against hosts Cote d’Ivoire.

“I’m rooting for the Super Eagles to win the trophy.

“I’m with Nigeria and hope the players will deliver,” he told Completesports.

The Eagles began their campaign with a 1-1 draw with Equatorial Guinea on Sunday.

They are joint-second in Group A behind the Ivorians.
