Super Eagles Stars Model In New Nike Kit

The Super Eagles will be playing in a new jersey when they take on the Elephants and Carthage Eagles in October’s international friendly games

Nigeria’s football top stars have modelled in the new Nike jersey that will be worn by the country’s national teams in games between now and next year.

The new design means fans will no longer get to see Nigerian teams in the jersey that broke sales record ahead of the 2018 World Cup.

Several Nigerian players, both male and female, were seen showing off the new design which paid tribute to the rich cultures of the country.

The home jersey is a blend of white and green stripes, while the away jersey is dark coloured green with Ankara patterns on the neck and arms.

Players involved in the unveiling include Alex Iwobi, Rasheeedat Ajibade, Asisat Oshoala, William Troost Ekong, Samuel Chukwueze and Wilfred Ndidi.

The Super Eagles are expected to launch the jersey when they take on the Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire in Austria next month.
