Former Cote d’Ivoire forward, Salomon Kalou has labelled the Super Eagles of Nigeria a “dangerous opponent”.
The Elephants and Super Eagles will do battle in Group A at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations next January.
The two giants of African football will clash at the Alhassan Quattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan on January 18.
Equatorial Guinea and Guinea-Bissau are the other countries in the group.
“Firstly, it’s a group made up of very good teams, starting with Nigeria which is a very dangerous side. At each AFCON, the Super Eagles show great potential,” Kalou told CAFonline.
“During the last edition, Equatorial Guinea did well, and Guinea Bissau may be the surprise of the group.
“We will have to respect all the teams and above all, win the first match to start the competition well, because that is where everything starts from.”
Cote d’Ivoire will host the 34th edition of the AFCON finals from January 13 to February 11, 2024.
