The former Super Eagles captain made this disclosure during the “Walk with Kanu’’ event organized by the Kanu Heart Foundation on Wednesday, September 29, 2021, to mark World Heart Day. Nigeria boasts of stars in top European clubs such as Victor Osimhen (Napoli, Italy), Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho (Leicester City, England), Alex Iwobi (Everton, England), and a lot more. Kanu believes that with the support from Nigerians, the Super Eagles will hit the climax of world football again.
“They can do more than us. The most important thing is for all of us to support them, they are doing well. They have the best players who are playing outside here so we have to believe in our own, for me the Super Eagles will keep on flying. They know they are all out to win the Africa Cup of Nations and World Cup but it is step by step.’’ Nwankwo Kanu

The former Arsenal FC of England star went further to opine that the team can do better than the present and noted that the technical crew must make the right decisions for the team to succeed.
“If you ask me if we have the best squad I will tell you yes. Look at where or players are playing, they are doing well, so the most important thing is left for their coaches to make sure they put the right people where they are supposed to be and then push them. They can do more than what they are doing because everybody is afraid of Nigeria. Presently, if you call one, two, three, four players our players are there.” KanuSource: Soccernet NG Featured Image Source: Goal
