Samuel Chukwueze is cracking jokes about his teammates dragging their feet with post-match interviews after Nigeria’s third-place finish at AFCON 2025 😂. He joked that next time, they’ll just enter the bus and head to the hotel or order an Uber, saying “Na third place we carry o, make we dey go home abeg” (We’re carrying third place, let’s just go home, please).
Chukwueze’s comments came after he grew frustrated waiting for teammates like Ademola Lookman and Calvin Bassey to finish their interviews. He’s also known for his playful banter, even poking fun at his teammates’ playing style, calling it “innit to innit football”.
