Nigeria has fallen to 44th position in the most recent FIFA rankings.

In the latest FIFA rankings released on Thursday, Nigeria has experienced a significant drop, falling from 36th to 44th place globally. This eight-position decline is a stark reflection of the team’s recent performances, which have not met expectations. Currently, Nigeria holds 1482.23 points, a decrease from their previous total of 1503.
Within the African football landscape, Nigeria now finds itself in fifth place, trailing behind Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, and Algeria. This shift is largely attributed to disappointing outcomes during the recent FIFA international window. The Super Eagles suffered a 2-1 defeat to Rwanda and could only manage a 1-1 draw against Benin in the qualifiers for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025.
On the global front, Argentina continues to lead the rankings, followed by France and Spain in second and third place, respectively. England and Brazil complete the top five.
The current rankings come amidst a busy international football calendar, featuring qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, AFCON 2025 matches, and fixtures in the Nations League.
In contrast, Niger has made notable strides, climbing nine places to 122nd globally with an increase of 31.23 points.
As the football community awaits the next update on December 12, 2024, Nigeria’s recent decline serves as a critical reminder of the need for strategic improvements within the national team.

Inter Miami, led by Messi, were unable to secure a victory against Al Ahly in their initial match.

Inter Miami and Al Ahly played to a scoreless draw in the opening match of the 2025 Club World Cup.

Ustari notably saved Trezeguet’s first-half penalty, denying the Egyptian side an early lead. Lionel Messi showed flashes of brilliance in the second half, but Al Ahly’s goalkeeper, El Shenawy, thwarted Inter Miami’s attempts to score. Both teams will continue their Club World Cup campaign on June 19, with Inter Miami facing Porto and Al Ahly playing against Palmeiras.

Transfer : Osimhen’s Conditions for Galatasaray Stay Revealed

Recent reports from within Galatasaray, courtesy of Ali Naci Küçük, shed light on the conditions set by Victor Osimhen regarding his potential continued presence at the club. Apparently, Osimhen seeks assurance of a strengthened squad, exemplified by the acquisition of high-caliber players.
Küçük revealed that the recent signing of Leroy Sané from Bayern Munich was, in fact, a strategic move to satisfy Osimhen’s demands. Sané’s imminent arrival, on a 3-year deal, underscores Galatasaray’s ambition to build a competitive team. The club has reportedly offered Osimhen a substantial €14 million salary, inclusive of bonuses, as they endeavor to retain the prolific striker who previously scored 37 goals in 41 appearances during a loan spell.
Osimhen, however, remains deliberate in his decision-making process, urging patience. Galatasaray’s management is seemingly amenable to Osimhen’s requests, acknowledging the necessity of a strong team to secure his commitment.
