AFCON 2025: Nigeria’s Lookman and Coach Chelle Make CAF Team of the Group Stage

Posted : 03 January 2026

Nigeria’s golden boy, Ademola Lookman, along with Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle, have been named in the Team of the Group Stage at the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.

Their inclusion reflects Nigeria’s stellar performance in the group stage, where the Super Eagles won all three of their matches against Tanzania, Tunisia, and Uganda.

Nigeria’s dominance in Group C is widely credited to Chelle’s tactical intelligence, discipline, and effective game management. The Franco-Malian tactician’s approach ensured balance across all departments, earning him recognition among the standout performers of the group phase.

Ademola Lookman also played a key role in Nigeria’s success, delivering a series of eye-catching attacking performances. The Atalanta forward scored two goals and provided two assists, helping the Super Eagles emerge as the most potent attacking side in the group stage.

The CAF Team of the Group Stage features top stars from across the continent, including Riyad Mahrez (Algeria), Amad Diallo (Côte d’Ivoire), Mohamed El Shenawi (Egypt), Sadio Mane (Senegal), Carlos Baleba (Cameroon), Brahim Diaz (Morocco), Edmond Tapsoba (Burkina Faso), Axel Tuanzebe (DR Congo), Noussair Mazraoui (Morocco), and Yahia Attiat-Allah (Morocco).
