Nigeria’s football team, the Super Eagles, has dropped to 45th in the FIFA Men’s World Rankings, their lowest position in six years since June 2019. This decline reflects poor results over recent matches, including early exits from the African Nations Championship and modest performances in World Cup qualifiers.

Nigeria remains sixth in Africa, behind Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, Algeria, and Côte d’Ivoire. Globally, Spain reclaimed the top spot, with Argentina dropping to third. Nigeria currently sits third in their World Cup qualifying group, with only two matches left, and risks missing the next World Cup if they do not secure wins against Lesotho and Benin in October.
