All about Super Eagles List

 Nigeria will not compete in the 2022 FIFA World Cup following three consecutive participation in 2010, 2014, and 2018, as they were eliminated in the last qualifying round by Ghana's Black Stars.

Before FIFA's November deadline, 14 countries that qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar have begun unveiling their team lineups.

Which of Nigeria's army of exceptional athletes would have made the team's 26-man super eagles list if the three-time African champion Super Eagles had purchased a plane ticket to Qatar in 2022? Soccernet.ng's Imhons Erons makes the selections.

Former Nigeria striker Jonathan Akpoborie has commended interim Super Eagles coach Austine Eguavoen for selecting the team that will face the Black Stars of Ghana in the 2022 World Cup playoff.

The goalkeepers are Francis Uzoho (Omonia Nicosia), Maduka Okoye (Watford), and Adebayo Adeleye (Hapoel Jerusalem)

Okoye and Uzoho didn't get much playing time for their clubs in England and Cyprus, respectively, due to a lack of Nigerian goalkeeper alternatives in Europe, but they would still have made the super eagles list.

Adeleye, on the other hand, has made a mark in Israel and deserves his most recent call-ups.

Chidozie Awaziem, Leon Balogun, and Semi Ajayi of West Brom, Kevin Akpoguma of Hoffenheim, William Troost-Ekong of Watford, Kenneth Omeruo of Leganes, Tyronne Ebuehi of Empoli, and Kenneth Omeruo of Leganes are among the defenders (Hajduk Split)

Injuries have sidelined some of Nigeria's top full-backs, including Jamilu Collins, Ola Aina, and Zaidu Sanusi.

Calvin Bassey and Chidozie Awaziem, in addition to Ebuehi and Akpoguma at right-back, would be solid left-back options.



In compared to Olisa Ndah of South Africa and Valentine Ozornwafor of Sochaux, the skills of Balogun, Omeruo, Troost-Ekong, and Ajayi tip the scales in their favour.

Midfielders: Joe Aribo (Southampton), Ahmed Musa (Sivasspor), Wilfred Ndidi (Leicester City), Oghenekaro Etebo (Aris FC), Frank Onyeka (Brentford), Raphael Onyedika (Club Brugge), Samuel Chukwueze (Villarreal), Ademola Lookman (Leicester City) (Nottingham Forest).

Nigerian flying forwards Chukwueze and Dennis are two of the best on the right wing on their best days. On the other wing, Moses Simon and Ademola Lookman may torment the opposing fullbacks for the whole of the game.

Victor Osimhen of Napoli, Paul Onuachu of KRC Genk, Terem Moffi of Lorient, and Taiwo Awoniyi of FC Barcelona are all forwards (Nottingham Forest)

It's uncertain how much damage Victor Osimhen would have caused opponents if he had been Nigeria's first-choice attacker at the Qatar World Cup in 2022.

The four wingers can alter positions in-game, providing the manager a range of tactical options.
