Shockingly excluded from Coach Eric Chelle’s AFCON 2025 list, more facts have emerged indicating that the omission of Terem Moffi is because of violent confrontation with supporters of his French Club, OGC Nice

Alongside teammate Jérémie Boga, Moffi was unairly subjected to insults, spitting, and physical violence that included being struck on the back and groin.

It has been reported they both remain deeply affected by the incident and have been unable to return to training, leading to repeated extensions of their medical leave and threats to leave the club.
