2025 WAFU B U-17 Championship: Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets Draw Burkina Faso, Benin in Group B

Posted : 04 September 2025

Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets, five-time FIFA U-17 World Cup champions, have discovered their opponents for the upcoming 2025 WAFU B U-17 Championship. The draw, held on Thursday, September 4, in Yamoussoukro, Côte d’Ivoire, placed the Eaglets in Group B with Burkina Faso and Benin Republic.

 

Host nation Côte d’Ivoire leads Group A, where they will face Ghana, Niger, and Togo in what promises to be another fiercely contested section.

 

The championship, scheduled to run from September 20 to October 3, 2025, is a key pathway to qualification for the CAF U-17 Nations Cup. Yamoussoukro, the Ivorian capital, will host the matches in modern facilities designed to highlight Africa’s rising football talent.

 

The group stage draw is seen as an important milestone in the competition’s buildup, setting the stage for captivating encounters between West Africa’s brightest young players. Historically, the WAFU B U-17 tournament has produced future stars who later shine at the global level, underscoring its importance as a breeding ground for talent.

 

With the groups now decided, all eyes will turn toward the kick-off later this month, as the Golden Eaglets prepare to begin their quest for regional dominance and a place in the next CAF U-17 Nations Cup.
