Nigeria’s Super Eagles striker Akor Adams has issued a strong statement of intent ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, following another impressive display in La Liga, Nigeriasoccernet.com can report.
The in-form forward was on target again on Sunday as Sevilla thrashed Barcelona 4–1, capping off a dominant performance with the fourth goal deep into stoppage time. Adams coolly converted a superb assist from his compatriot Bright Ejuke, sealing one of Sevilla’s most memorable victories of the season.
Adams’ relentless form in front of goal has earned him a well-deserved recall to the Super Eagles squad, boosting Nigeria’s attacking options ahead of their qualifiers against Lesotho and Benin Republic.
With back-to-back goals for Sevilla, the 24-year-old appears to be hitting peak form at the perfect time. His growing chemistry with Ejuke in Spain has also raised excitement among Nigerian fans, who hope to see the duo replicate their club connection on the international stage.
Adams’ recent performances underline his rise as one of Nigeria’s most consistent and dangerous forwards in Europe, and a key player to watch as the road to the 2026 World Cup intensifies.
