Sevilla striker Akor Adams has stressed the need for the Super Eagles to begin preparations early for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Nigeria missed out on the 2022 tournament after a painful playoff defeat to arch-rivals Ghana.
The three-time African champions will also be absent from this year’s edition, set to be co-hosted by Canada, Mexico, and the United States, following a penalty shootout loss to the Democratic Republic of Congo in the African playoffs final last November.
