‘What Will They Use It For?’ Fans Mock Super Eagles’ New Away Jersey
Nigeria’s Super Eagles have unveiled a striking new away kit for 2026 despite missing out on this year’s World Cup. The Nike design is predominantly white, featuring bold green flame motifs, a dark green collar, matching sleeve cuffs, the national crest, and the Nike logo. The kit launch comes after Nigeria failed to overcome DR Congo in the playoff, ending their World Cup hopes. The NFF’s protest over player eligibility was dismissed by FIFA, leaving the team without a spot on football’s biggest stage. On social media, fans questioned the timing and purpose of the new jersey. Comments ranged from “We have nothing left to release for the World Cup, but here we are” to “Will they ever get to wear it on the world stage?” Ahead of friendly matches against Iran and Jordan later this month, supporters are hoping for brighter days.
