Zimbabwe name powerful squad for Super Eagles Unity Cup in London

Zimbabwe have unveiled a strong squad ahead of their Unity Cup semi-final clash against Nigeria later this month in London.

The tournament, scheduled to run from May 26 to 30, will also feature Jamaica and India.

The competition is designed to promote unity and strengthen sporting relationships among the participating nations through international football.

Organisers expect the event to attract significant attention from fans in the diaspora, particularly in the United Kingdom, where strong Nigerian, Zimbabwean, Jamaican, and Indian communities are based.

In a statement released by the Zimbabwe Football Association, the Warriors confirmed a squad packed with experienced professionals drawn from clubs across Europe and Africa.

The semi-final encounter is expected to provide a valuable test for the Super Eagles as they continue preparations for the 2027 AFCON qualifying campaign.

Nigeria, three-time African champions, are also expected to use the tournament to assess players and build momentum ahead of competitive fixtures later in the year.

Both teams view the Unity Cup as an important opportunity to fine-tune tactics, strengthen squad chemistry, and evaluate form.

With experienced players expected on both sides, the clash between Nigeria and Zimbabwe is already shaping up to be one of the standout fixtures of the tournament.
