Nigeria’s U20 national team, the Flying Eagles, have been drawn into Group B alongside Egypt, South Africa, and Morocco for the upcoming 2025 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire.

Nigeria’s under-20 football team, known as the Flying Eagles, will compete against Egypt, South Africa, and Morocco in the 2025 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations to be held in Côte d’Ivoire.

The Nigerian team found themselves in Group B alongside two North African teams and South Africa, which is deemed the ‘group of death’ as it includes three former champions.
