The draw for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) will take place today, Monday, January 27, in Rabat, Morocco.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles are in Pot 1, placing them among the tournament’s top-seeded teams alongside Egypt, Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Algeria, and hosts Morocco. This positioning ensures they will avoid these heavyweights in the group stage.

Attending the ceremony on behalf of Nigeria are Super Eagles Head Coach Éric Sékou Chelle, Team Administrator Dayo Enebi Achor, and the Chairman of the NFF Technical and Development Committee, Alhaji Sharif Rabiu Inuwa.

Despite their top seeding, the Super Eagles could still face challenging opponents, as lower pots include teams capable of causing upsets.

The AFCON 2025 tournament promises to showcase the best of African football, and the draw will set the stage for the competition’s group phase dynamics. Fans eagerly await the outcome as teams prepare for the continent’s most prestigious football event.
