    Chelle names two things he wants to achieve with Nigeria

    Published on

    Head coach of Super Eagles, Eric Chelle has revealed that he wants to win both the Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, and the FIFA World Cup with Nigeria.

    Chelle, who has less than a year in his contract with the Super Eagles, spoke in a recent interview on the Histoires de Foot Podcast.

    “I have a structure around me to try to progress as a coach. It is true that not long ago, I said that my dream was to be the first African at Real Madrid,” Chelle said.

    “But that is not my only dream. I want to win the Africa Cup of Nations with Nigeria.

    “If we had gone through, I wanted to qualify for the World Cup with Nigeria, and I even wanted to win that World Cup.

    “I have lots of dreams. I am 48 years old but still young and someone who wants to realise his dreams.”

    Chelle led Nigeria to win the bronze medal during the 2025 AFCON in Morocco.
