The Super Eagles of Nigeria are set to face Jordan in an international friendly ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The match, which forms part of Jordan's preparations for the Mundial, is expected to take place in Amman in March.

However, Nigeria's availability for the game depends on the outcome of FIFA’s impending ruling on the country’s eligibility protest against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The NFF is challenging the eligibility of at least six DR Congo players who featured in the African play-off final last November.

It will be the first-ever meeting between Nigeria and Jordan.

Jordan will be making their debut at the 2026 FIFA World Cup and have been drawn against world champions Argentina and Algeria.
