Super Eagles head coach Jose Peseiro must submit his final 23-man squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations not later than Wednesday, January 3, 2024.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has directed all the 24 countries that will be participating in the biennial competition to submit their final squads 10 days before the start of the competition.
Cote d’Ivoire will host the competition from January 13 to February 11.
Peseiro and the other coaches are also expected to submit a 55-man provisional squad before the end of the year.
The Super Eagles have been placed in Pot 2 for the draw.
The draw ceremony will hold in Abidjan on Thursday, October 12
The three-time African champions could face holders Senegal, hosts Cote d’Ivoire, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt in the group stage.
The Super Eagles were eliminated in the Round of 16 at the last AFCON by the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia.
Nigeria last tasted success on the continent at the 2013 edition of the AFCON hosted by South Africa.

If there are not any injuries I recommend Peseiro to put this list of Super Eagles squad for CAF cup final tournament in Ivory Coast 13 January 2024 as follows: Goalkeepers(Uzoho,Adeleye,Noah Atubolu); Defenders(Aina,Osayei,Torunariagh,Ajayi,Bassay,Zaidu,Oneymaechi); Midfielders(Ndidi,Alhassan Yusuf,Oneydika,Iwobi,Aribo,Iheancho); Forwards( Moses,Orban,Chukuwueze,Lookman,Osimhen,Boniface,Moffi,Awoniyi); I think this an ideal SE squad to offer them then register them to CAF administration.
Where are Paul Mukairu, Paul Onuachu, Josh Maja, Ebube Duru and Kingsley Michael in your list?
Rest.
Me l go for the ff players:
Goalkeepers:
Osigwe, Uzoho, Adeleye( Tobias Lawal)
Defenders:
Osayi Samuel,Aina, Ajayi, Ekong, Omeruah(Igoh Ogbu), Torunarigha, Bassey, Onyemaechi, Zaidu.
Midfielders:
Ndidi,Onyedikachi,Iwobi, Nwobodo(Ovie Ejaria—if he is fit enof),Iheanacho,Onyeka
(Aribo).
Attack:
Lookman,Chukwueze,Orban,
Boniface,Osimhen,Awoniyi,
Moffi, Simon.
Their names don’t even threaten any opponent. Abeg we need better players
@ugo am not sure Kingsley Micheal is a mediocre player. We beat car at home becuase he combine well with bonke in the absence of Ndidi and iwobi
@Ignatius Abo. Nawaz Ooo. Those players you have mentioned are mediocre lol…
Ignatius Abo thoes players you have metioned before, they are mediocre and little bit players who have less quality than I metioned above .
