Remo Stars forward Adedayo Olamilekan has declared that Nigeria’s Super Eagles B squad is focused on winning gold at the 2025 African Nations Championship (CHAN). In an interview, the 21 year old striker explained that the team’s purpose is not merely podium placement but securing the title.
Olamilekan, whose late goal clinched Remo Stars’ maiden NPFL title making them the first South-West club to lift the trophy said the squad is motivated under coach Eric Sekou Chelle’s demanding philosophy. Chelles’s “warrior” approach fuels their ambition.
Home-based selections form the squad’s backbone, heavily drawn from league champions Remo Stars. Olamilekan joins other NPFL standouts such as Shola Adelani in a team committed to silencing doubters on the continental stage.

We believe Adedayo Olamilekan’s bold proclamation to take CHAN gold is a necessary shift in mindset. Too often, Nigerian teams settle for second best, resigning themselves to near-misses. Here stands a player who embodies belief, hunger, and vision and reminds us that expectation matters.
Behind this confidence lies the Remo Stars story: a club built from scratch, crowned NPFL champions on 27 April 2025, with Olamilekan’s goal sealing their historic win. That ambition now extends to the national stage, where war and chaos in the midfield must be matched by composure up front.
Coach Eric Chelle’s mantra, “if you are not a warrior you can’t be a footballer,” resonates deeper than rhetoric. It has become the spine of their preparation. For Olamilekan, being a warrior means resilience, precision, and seizing decisive moments a role he proved capable of at club level.
The team’s reliance on NPFL talent is commendable. Remo Stars contributed heavily to the squad, underscoring the league’s rising quality. If Nigeria’s football renaissance is to continue, domestic football must step up—and the Eagles B’s philosophy suggests it will.
We expect this squad to challenge expectations and to do so with style. If they play with conviction and tenacity, silver history could turn to gold.
