Nigeria Remain 39th In World, 6th In Africa

Super Eagles

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have retained their 39th position in the latest FIFA world rankings.

This comes after the 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifiers where Nigeria bashed Benin Republic 3-0 and played a stalemate with Rwanda in Kigali.

These results however still saw Nigeria retain their spot in the top 40 best football-playing nations in the world, per the latest FIFA ranking.
In Africa, Nigeria is ranked the sixth strongest, topped by Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, Cote d’Ivoire, and Tunisia.

Direct rivals, Ghana are ranked 70th while South Africa is ranked 59th.

The Eagles are still in search of their next head coach with the AFCON qualifier returning next month as they face Libya in a Group D clash.

The three-time African champions are top of their group with four points in two matches.
