Ashleigh Plumptre has expressed disappointment with her omission from the Super Falcons squad to the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, DAILY POST reports.
Head coach, Justine Madugu unveiled his squad for the competition on Friday.
Plumptre was a notable absentee in the 25-player squad.
The defender went under the March after sustaining a foot injury while in action for her Saudi club Al-Ittihad Ladies.
The 28-year-old is, however, still recuperating from the injury.
Plumptre took to the social media to show her support for the team despite her omission.
“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 yo.
“I am with you ladies.
Naija no dey carry last,” Plumptre wrote on X.
The former Leicester City defender made her maiden WAFCON appearance at the 2022 finals hosted by Morocco.
She featured prominently in the Super Falcons’ squad that won the WAFCON 2024 title.
