According to SCORENigeria, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has secured sponsorship from the Katsina State Government to facilitate the training camp. The team is expected to regroup this week after a short break.

Under the guidance of head coach Aliyu Zubairu, the Flying Eagles recently played two friendly matches against Cote d’Ivoire, securing a 2-0 victory in the first match but suffering a 2-0 defeat in the second.

The seven-time African champions have been drawn in a competitive Group B, where they will battle Egypt, Morocco, and South Africa for a place in the knockout rounds.

The U-20 AFCON 2025 will take place in Cote d’Ivoire from April 26 to May 18, as teams compete for continental glory and a potential ticket to the FIFA U-20 World Cup.
