The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) technical sub-committee has appointed former Super Eagles player, Shuaibu Amodu as the new interim coach for the Super Eagles team.
The new coaching crew which include Salisu Ibrahim, Alloy Agu, Imama Amakapabo and Kennedy Boboye will prepare the national team for the upcoming two international friendly games against Mali and Luxembourg.
Samson Siasia and Emmanuel Amuneke who were previously in charge have now returned to their categories as Dream Team VI and national U-20 coaches respectively, but Alloy Agu remains the goalkeeper trainer.
A close source disclosed:
Part of the recommendations we gave to the executive committee of the federation is that Amodu will supervise the technical crew to be headed by the Salisu.
We also recommended the drafting of two league coaches into the crew and we went for Rangers and Abia Warriors chief coaches, just as we settled for Agu as the goalkeeper trainer. We went for the two league coaches to expose them with those two matches. I know that Nigerians will ask why Siasia and Amunike did not continue with the team, but we all know that they are very much engaged and committed with their teams. Our plans and expectations will be to provide every help to Siasia to win the Olympic Games trophy. The appointment will be for the two friendly matches, after which we will continue with the hiring of a substantive coach for the team.
Do you think its the best thing to do at this time ? Please make your comments.
