Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre explained why she was omitted from Nigeria's squad for the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations #WAFCON2026.

"The body is asking for more time and I’m listening ❤️‍🩹
Sad to be missing this WAFCON yet hopeful in the prospect of getting to fight alongside these women again with the support of Nigerians everywhere when the body is ready to compete again.
So, in the meantime, back these women, back them on their quest for victory once more. Go easy on them, they need you 💚
I am with you ladies 🫶🏽

Naija no dey carry last 🫀" she wrote on her social media.

"Naija will feel your absence. #TotalEnergiesWAFCON2026 will too. Get well soon, Plumptre. 💚" CAF wrote her.

Get well soon Ashleigh! 💚🤍💚
