Nigerian Afrobeats star Wizkid has expressed his satisfaction with the Super Eagles’ preparation ahead of their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Rwanda in Kigali.

The team, now under the leadership of newly appointed head coach Eric Chelle, held its first training session on Tuesday afternoon.

Reacting to the squad’s energy under Chelle, Wizkid took to his X handle on Wednesday, stating, “New Super Eagles team! [I] love the energy,” he tweeted.


The crucial qualifier is set to take place at the Amahoro Stadium in Rwanda on Friday, March 21, with kickoff scheduled for 5 PM Nigerian time.

Following the match, Nigeria will return home to face Zimbabwe in Uyo on Tuesday.

The Super Eagles must secure maximum points from both fixtures to strengthen their chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
