The presidency has ordered the NFF and the Sports Ministry to hand off the appointment of a new head coach for the Super Eagles, according to a new report.
The Nigeria Football Federation
(NFF) is yet to make a pronouncement on the appointment of a new head coach for
the Super Eagles who are three-time champions of Africa.
Since Finidi George's
resignation, the NFF’s technical director, Augustine Eguavoen has been tapped
in to manage the Super Eagles for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers
against Benin Republic and Rwanda next month till someone else takes over the job
permanently.
“The appointment of the new
Super Eagles coach is now beyond the NFF and sports ministry,” a source in the
NFF told Complete Sports.
”The presidency is now in
control of the entire process and one can just hope they will take the right
decision.”
“We don’t know whether they will consult the
NFF or sports ministry before coming up with a final choice.”
