 Trump announces Hamas disarmament and Israeli troop withdrawal agreement under Gaza ceasefire plan   President Donald Trump announced Thursday that Hamas has agreed to a plan to disarm and that Israel will withdraw its forces from Gaza as part of a U.S.-backed ceasefire framework. Trump described the agreement as a major step toward creating a new Palestinian government in Gaza that would work with the newly established Board of Peace to oversee the next stages of the plan. The president said the agreement would also provide Israel with increased security by preventing Gaza from being used as a launching point for future attacks.

Super Eagles Coach Eric Chelle Drops Osimhen, Lookman for Unity Cup and Russia Friendly


Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has made a bold move by excluding star forwards Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman from the squad set to face Ghana in the upcoming Unity Cup and Russia in an international friendly. The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) confirmed the 23-man squad list on Wednesday afternoon, sparking widespread discussion among fans.


The Unity Cup, a four-nation tournament featuring Nigeria, Ghana, Jamaica, and Trinidad & Tobago, will take place from May 26 to 31, 2025. Nigeria will then travel to Moscow to face Russia in a historic first-ever senior international friendly at the Luzhniki Stadium on June 6, 2025.


Chelle’s squad sees the return of goalkeeper Maduka Okoye, midfielder Frank Onyeka, forward Kelechi Iheanacho, and team captain Ahmed Musa, who will lead the side. The roster also includes a strong contingent from the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), with standout players such as Junior Harrison Nduka (captain of Remo Stars and CHAN-bound Super Eagles B), Ifeanyi Onyebuchi and Collins Ugwueze (Enugu Rangers), Sodiq Ismail (Remo Stars), Waliu Ojetoye (Ikorodu City), Saviour Isaac (Enugu Rangers), Papa Daniel Mustapha (Niger Tornadoes), Sikiru Alimi (Remo Stars), and Adamu Abubakar (Plateau United).


These home-based stars will compete for spots alongside established internationals, including Moses Simon, Stanley Nwabali, Wilfred Ndidi, Samuel Chukwueze, Cyriel Dessers, Nathan Tella, and Tolu Arokodare. The blend of domestic and foreign-based players reflects Chelle’s strategy to test new talent and tactics ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.


Speaking on his selections, Chelle said, “The Unity Cup and the Russia friendly will give us the chance to try out a few new players in different roles, helping us to strengthen our squad before the crucial World Cup qualifiers in September and October.”


The exclusion of Osimhen, who has struggled with injuries at Napoli this season, and Lookman, a key figure in Atalanta’s attack, has raised eyebrows. Chelle’s decision signals a focus on squad depth and versatility as Nigeria prepares for a critical phase in its international campaign. Fans will be watching closely to see how the revamped Super Eagles perform in these high-stakes matches.
