NFF Might Consider A Local Coach For The Super Eagles Due To Lack Of Fund As NFF Is Broke

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is once again seeking a foreign manager for the Super Eagles following the unexpected resignation of Finidi George. The 53-year-old stepped down just 47 days into his tenure after disappointing results in FIFA World Cup qualification matches against South Africa and Benin Republic.
Facing a challenging qualification situation, the NFF is considering foreign managers, but concerns arise as the federation seems to be targeting readily available candidates rather than elite coaches.
Former Super Eagles striker, Julius Aghahowa, highlighted the NFF’s financial constraints in an interview with Brila.net, explaining that the federation struggles to afford top-tier foreign coaches. Aghahowa advocates for appointing a local coach to develop homegrown talent and strengthen the Nigerian league.
Reports suggest the NFF has shortlisted three foreign candidates: Marc Brys, Antonio Conceicao, and Didier Six. However, questions linger about whether these candidates can lead the Super Eagles to the desired success.
Will the NFF’s decision meet fans’ expectations, or should they heed Aghahowa’s advice and look inward? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
