Configure lxc to set the header x-forwarded-for

I have a server that host some lxc on it, and i forward what he get from port 8080 to the port 80 of my lxc

lxc profile create proxy-8080
lxc profile list

# first create a profile bound to the future local host
lxc profile device add proxy-8080 hostport8080 proxy connect="tcp:127.0.0.1:80" listen="tcp:0.0.0.0:8080"
# then attach profil to container
lxc profile add dev proxy-8080

It's works well, but on my lxc container, i don't see remote ip, i always see 127.0.0.1.

How can I set at least the x-forwarded-for flag to getting it in my container ?

Finally i remove lxc profile and put a nginx to manage this as a proxy:

    server {
    listen 8080;
    #server_name example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://xx.xx.xx.xx:80/;
        #proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header Host $host:$server_port;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }
}
