In the latest FIFA World Rankings, Nigeria's Super Eagles have dropped one spot to 39th place, despite maintaining their points total from last month.

The team had previously fallen from 30th to 38th in the June rankings, following underwhelming performances in the World Cup Qualifying matches.

On the continental stage, Nigeria remains in fifth place, behind Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, and Cote d'Ivoire.

Meanwhile, on the global scene, Argentina continues to dominate the top spot, with France closely following in second place.

The recent rankings saw significant movement, with Spain leapfrogging to third place after their triumph in the Euro 2024 final against England.

England moved up one spot to fourth place, while Brazil and Belgium dropped to fifth and sixth respectively.

The next FIFA World Ranking is set to be released on July 20, 2023.

Nigeria's highest ranking was achieved in 1994 when they reached an impressive 5th place, which also stands as the highest ranking ever achieved by an African team.
