The head coach of the Super Eagles, Eric Chelle, has dropped a big hint he could punish Victor Osimhen, following his on-field clash with Ademola Lookman.

The incident happened during Nigeria’s 4-0 win over Mozambique in the Round of 16 at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Monday night.

Both Osimhen and Lookman could be seen exchanging strong words in the second half, with the Eagles already three goals up.

Osimhen then asked Chelle to be taken off and was replaced by Paul Onuachu.

The Galatasaray striker went straight into the dressing room at full time, refusing to join the celebrations with the rest of the squad.

When asked about the incident at his press conference, Chelle said: “What happened on the pitch will stay in the group.

“I don’t need to tell you what will happen, I keep that to me.”
