Friendlies: Super Eagles Open Camp March 24 for Four-Nation Tourney

Nigeria’s Super Eagles will open camp on March 24 ahead of a four-nation invitational tournament in Jordan.

The three-time African champions are scheduled to face Iran and host Jordan in the competition.

Eric Chelle’s side will take on Iran’s Team Melli in their opening fixture at the 17,000-capacity Amman International Stadium on Friday, March 27. They will return to the same venue four days later to face Jordan.

The tournament is expected to offer the Super Eagles valuable competitive preparation ahead of the qualifiers for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations.

Nigeria was last in action against Egypt in the bronze medal match of the AFCON 2025 finals.
