Technical Director of the Nigeria Football Federation, Augustine Eguavoen believes the Super Eagles can win a fourth Africa Cup of Nations title next year in Cote d’Ivoire.
The Super Eagles will head into the competition as one of the favourites.
Jose Peseiro’s men will face hosts Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea and Guinea-Bissau in Group A.
The Super Eagles last tasted success on the continent 10 years ago in South Africa.
Eguavoen however insists the Super Eagles can beat the 23 other teams to the title.
“We have been craving to try to get the Nations Cup back, since 2013 we’ve not been able to achieve that feat because we know we have the capacity, we have the quality and everything to be able to win it,” Eguavoen told Brila FM. READ ALSO:

“But to say it is easy to achieve, is another thing so everybody has to work towards the same goal, support the team whichever way we can, support the coaches and the players have to go out there and do the job.“
