What appears cheery news has come for newly appointed Super Eagles coach, George Finidi, as team captain, Williams Troost-Ekong, has returned to training after a prolonged injury layoff.
The defender, who was named Player of the Tournament at the last Africa Cup of Nations in Cote D’Ivoire, shared a photo of himself back in action on social media, captioning it “Na God” – a testament to his gratitude for a successful recovery.
Ekong, who plays for FC PAOK of Greece, has been working tirelessly to regain full fitness, and his hard work has paid off. His return to training marks a significant milestone in his journey back to the pitch.
Coach Finidi and the entire Super Eagles squad will undoubtedly benefit from Ekong’s presence as they prepare for upcoming fixtures, particularly the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic next month.
According to BSNSports.com.ng, with Ekong back in the fold, the Super Eagles will be looking to build on their recent successes and make a strong push for the 2026 FIFA World Cup
