The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) would announce the next Super Eagles coach next week, according to the President, Engr Ibrahim Gusau.
Speaking the sidelines yesterday following the inauguration of five subcommittees of the Federation at the Sunday Dankaro House at the MKO Abiola National Stadium in Abuja, he disclosed this information.
It’ll be brought back. Jose Peseiro left the role after his contract expired in February, leaving the country without a permanent coach.
“The issue about the Super Eagles coaching will be resolved very soon. I think you had a little tip-off from the sports minister who had said maximum of the next two weeks. Now, we have one week and by God’s grace next week, we will get out of this,” he said.
In the same vein, Gusau has charged the governing body’s sub-committees to cogitate and come up with fresh ideas, policies and programmes that will drive Nigeria Football to new heights of excellence.
“Football has become highly dynamic and only great ideas will drive real growth and sustainability. The chairmen, vice chairmen and members of these committees must commit to bring forth ideas that will take us further in our mission to take our game to the next level.
“The members have been carefully selected by the NFF Board and I believe we have in the committees, men and women of calibre who will help the Board achieve its objectives.”
Gusau informed the members that the majority of their meetings will need to be conducted virtually, highlighting the reality that people, organizations, and establishments had caught up to the digital age.
“We are not saying that you will never have physical meetings, but logistics and the reality of our situation at the moment, as well as convenience, mean that most meetings will have to hold virtually,” he stated.
