Amavubi head coach Torsten Spittler says he cannot promise the country qualification to the 2025 AFCON although it's a dream he wants to achieve.

Just like he said prior to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Spittler insists his aim is to win all AFCON 2025 qualifying matches.

"Every team wants to qualify but I cannot promise anything. My target is to win every game in the qualifying phase and if those wins can take us in Morocco, we will be glad," Spittler told the press.

The German gaffer further mentioned that he is hoping for a bright start to the qualifying campaign ahead of Amavubi's trip to Libya on September 4 before hosting the Super Eagles on September 10 at Amahoro Stadium.

"We have been performing well and I hope we get the perfect start we need by getting the needed results against Libya and Nigeria."

"For Libya, information on them is very scanty but for Nigeria we know a lot about them and their world class players. Yes, It is true I asked my friend Gernot Rohr (Benin head coach) on how to beat Nigeria," he added.
