Nigeria’s Flying Eagles will face Tunisia, Kenya, and Morocco in Group B of the 2025 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations, following a revised draw held in Cairo on Sunday.
The seven-time champions, seeded as one of the tournament favourites, were placed in position B1. Group B presents a blend of seasoned contenders and rising hopefuls, with Morocco seeking redemption, Tunisia returning with ambition, and Kenya marking a rare appearance at this level.

The reshuffle followed the withdrawal of Ivory Coast as tournament hosts in late March. The Confederation of African Football subsequently handed hosting duties to Egypt and nullified the original draw conducted in February.
Senegal, the defending champions, now lead Group C, while hosts Egypt take the A1 slot as the countdown to the continent’s premier youth competition begins in earnest.
