Nigeria, Osimhen dreams of the World Cup
–
“It is the dream of every footballer to play the World Cup And, given our position in the group, I am now desperate, like other players, because we want to get to the 2026 tournament. We have undergone a great disappointment in 2022 and we cannot allow us to happen again to us, the country and our generation. You don’t want to conclude your career with the regret of not playing at the World Cup. That’s not what I want for myself. There is a new coach (Eric Chelle ed) now and we can’t wait to play against Rwanda to try to correct all the errors made in the past and put us in a better position to qualify. People say that we have a talent generation, but we will be able to confirm this talent only when we play a world championship Like those who preceded us. I was sorry, like my teammates, jumping Qatar and our fans have not even understood how much it has struck us. That’s why we have to correct past errors, giving everything for our country, for our new coach and showing that he is worthy of it “.
