Victor Osimhen's journey from selling newspapers on the streets of Lagos to leading Nigeria's attack at the Africa Cup of Nations has made him one of the most-watched players heading into the 2025 tournament in Morocco.
Nigeria will face Tanzania, Tunisia and Uganda in Group C in December, and much of the focus will be on the 26-year-old striker, who has become a regular scorer for both the Super Eagles and Turkish club Galatasaray.
"He is the greatest striker in the world," head coach Eric Chelle said as Nigeria aims for a fourth AFCON title and its first since 2013.
