Nigeria's national football team, the Super Eagles, face a test in their AFCON qualifier against Guinea-Bissau. According to Premium Times, their previous match against Madagascar gave them three points, but Guinea-Bissau will require a more complete performance from the team.
The team's lineup has been affected by a development involving Brentford defender Michael Kayode. Daily Post Nigeria reports that Kayode can no longer represent Nigeria, having made a cap-tying appearance for Italy in their win over Türkiye. Kayode, born in Italy to Nigerian parents, had been eligible to play for Nigeria but chose to represent Italy instead.
Kayode's decision means he is no longer available to play for the Super Eagles, due to FIFA's eligibility regulations. He had previously represented Italy at various youth levels and made his competitive senior debut for the team.
