NFF has announced Shuaibu Amodu as Super Eagles’ interim coach. The 58 year-old who managed the team 4 times would be assisted by Salisu Yusuf. Just some days ago, the former Technical Director urged the team to focus on the 2018 World Cup.
“If we continue like this, we will jeopardize the chances of Nigeria qualifying for the 2018 World Cup in Russia and I think many Nigerians will not like the national team to miss the World Cup after the Cup of Nations miss,” He said.
