Former Super Eagles captain, Austin Jay Jay Okocha has said the current Eagles has what it takes to win the forthcoming Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON in Egypt.
Okocha, who was part of the team that got a bronze medal, when Egypt hosted the 2006 edition of the Nations Cup, said he expects the team to lift the trophy going by the quality of players it has.
Another Nigerian former International, Etim Esin also expressed optimism that the current Super Eagles, with lots of promising young talents would make the country proud if the right preparation is organised for the team ahead of the Nations holding between June 21st and July 19th.
Esin said he believes the players are rearing to go, adding that many of them would want to make name for themselves and hope to feature for big clubs in Europe in the nearest future.
Nigeria will play her
first Group-B match on June 22nd against Burundi, and then take
on Madagascar and Guinea in the remaining two matches.
