NFF Appoints Salisu Yusuf as Super Eagles Head Coach

The Executive Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has named Salisu Yusuf as the new Super Eagles Head Coach following Frenchman Paul Le Guen’s rejection of the job.



The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Technical and Development Committee of the NFF on Monday recommended to its executive committee that Le Guen be appointed Super Eagles Technical Adviser.

The Frenchman claimed that he rejected the offer before his recommendation to the NFF executive committee.

The NFF, however, in a communiqué after its executive committee meeting on Wednesday, said that Yusuf had been appointed following its rejection of the recommendation of its Technical and Development Committee to appoint Le Guen.
