Egypt vs Nigeria: AFCON warm-up friendly tonight, Salah expected to ignite

NIGERIA: Two African stars Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush will go head-to-head tonight as Egypt VS Nigeria friendly clash is taking place ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations.  

Salah recently joined the Egyptian squad after leaving Liverpool over the weekend, while Marmoush arrived from Manchester City, though both face fitness questions after missing Monday’s training.

Nigeria, including Victor Osimhen, trained Monday evening, and head coach Eric Chelle is expected to field a strong team as he fine-tunes his squad following their failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.
