According to Footynaija, Samson Tijani has stated his goal of becoming a mainstay in the Super Eagles.
Before the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualification doubleheader against Tanzania’s Taifa Stars, the Dukla Prague player is now training with the Super Eagles squad.
The three-time African winners have previously captained Tijani three times. The ex-captain of the Golden Eaglets helped the Super Eagles win the Unity Cup in May in London.
Nonetheless, the 24-year-old is keeping his fingers crossed for additional playing time with the squad. I’m here because I want to push myself to my limits. It’s a chance I can’t pass up, Tijani told the reporters covering the Super Eagles.
The new players are warmly welcomed by the team. They make an effort to encourage and uplift everyone. This is a business. Everyone on the team gets along well.
You can tell the veteran players have been contributing by their actions. If you bow down to their authority, you can also learn a lot from them.
In their next match, the Super Eagles will be aiming to recover from their disheartening loss to Guinea-Bissau.
Tijani is hoping that he can contribute to the team’s success in their next games against Tanzania.
Acquiring the six points is of utmost importance.
