WAFCON 2026: Asisat Oshoala missing as Ajibade leads Falcons for Cameroon friendlies

Ahead of the international Super Falcons’ friendly against Cameroon, head coach Justine Madugu has released a 25-player squad, with captain Rasheedat Ajibade leading the side in the absence of star forward Asisat Oshoala, as preparations gather momentum for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

Oshoala, one of Nigeria’s most decorated players, is a notable omission from the list as Madugu turns his attention to testing the depth of the team ahead of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
