Super Eagles Resume Training As NSC Settles Bonus Dispute In Morocco

Following the dispute over unpaid allowances and bonuses by the NFF to the Super Eagles of Nigeria, there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel as the team suspended its on-going strike.

It must be noted that both their Gaboneese counterparts have been in a duel with their FA over unpaid bonuses and allowances with demands for better welfare packages.

The Super Eagles have returned to training in Rabat, Morocco, after temporarily suspending activities over unpaid bonuses and allowances.

The dispute, which threatened to disrupt Nigeria’s preparations for Thursday’s crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup African Qualifier play-off against Gabon, has been resolved following the intervention of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Very Nigerian reports.

Team captain William Troost-Ekong confirmed the development late Tuesday via his official X handle, assuring fans that harmony had been restored within the squad.

“Issue RESOLVED. We are together and as before focused on the games ahead! 🇳🇬 @NGSuperEagles,” Troost-Ekong wrote.

The players had boycotted training sessions on Monday and Tuesday to protest what they described as repeated unfulfilled promises from the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) over unpaid match bonuses, camp allowances, and appearance fees spanning several international windows.
