Super Eagles confirm participation in Jordan tournament

27 Feb 2026

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has officially confirmed that the Super Eagles will participate in a high-profile Four-Nation Invitational Tournament in Amman, Jordan, during the upcoming March international window.

The tournament, which serves as a critical tactical preparation for the three-time African champions, will see Nigeria face off against Iran on March 27 before taking on the hosts, Jordan, on March 31.

This move comes as the team continues to integrate new talent under head coach Eric Chelle, who recently dismissed rumors linking him to French club Olympique de Marseille.

Chelle, who led Nigeria to a bronze medal at the 2025 AFCON, emphasized his ongoing commitment to the squad, noting that he is already finalizing the list for the March fixtures.
