Nigeria’s hopes of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup may be under further threat following reports that West African rivals Guinea are actively pursuing Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle.

Chelle, who also doubles as the manager of Nigeria’s home-based national team (Super Eagles B), was appointed earlier this year after leaving his post at Algerian club, MC Oran.

Since taking charge, the 47-year-old Malian tactician has yet to taste defeat, with his early achievements including lifting the Unity Cup with the Super Eagles in London this past May.

Highly regarded for his tactical acumen and calm leadership, Eric Chelle previously led Mali to the quarterfinals of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

His short tenure in Nigeria has injected fresh belief into the national set-up, with many banking on him to guide the country to its seventh World Cup appearance in 2026.
