Reports reaching us have it that NFF has appointed a Portuguese as Super Eagles Manager.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has officially appointed Jose Peseiro as the Super Eagles coach.
The Editor Nigeria reports that this was confirmed in a communique on Wednesday after a virtual NFF executive committee meeting.
Part of the Communique reads ‘after careful consideration of a memo presented by Chairman of the Technical and Development Sub-Committee Ahmed Yusuf Fresh, the Executive Committee endorsed a proposal for the appointment of [the_ad id=”42658″]
Mr Jose Peseiro as the new Head Coach of the Super Eagles’.
However, the Committee resolved that Mr Augustine Eguavoen, named the interim Head Coach, will lead the Super Eagles to the AFCON 2021 in Cameroon with Mr Peseiro only playing the role of Observer.
It was unanimously agreed that the AFCON is a good avenue for Mr Peseiro to launch a working relationship with Mr Eguavoen, who will revert to his role as Technical Director (hence Mr Peseiro’s immediate boss) after the AFCON.
