NFF plans consortium of coaches for Eagles

 

The Nigeria Football Federation plans to hire a consortium of coaches for the Super Eagles, the federation’s president, Amaju Pinnick, has disclosed.
Former Super Eagles skipper, Sunday Oliseh, has been widely touted to replace the sacked Stephen Keshi, but Pinnick has now told africanFootball.com the NFF want to do something different as regards the top coaching post for the Eagles by hiring a team of top coaches.

“Yes I am going to have a meeting, but it’s not just with Oliseh. It’s going to be a collective meeting with others. We are setting up a team (of coaches),” Pinnick told africanFootball.com
“It could be a foreign technical assistant, it could be a consortium of coaches, but we see this as an opportunity to deviate from the norm.
“We want what is best for Nigeria, that is why we have been speaking to a lot of people.
“We do not want to go through that usual way of collecting CV’s and interviewing. We know what we want and we want to go for it.”
Pinnick further disclosed the NFF plan to announce its decision later on Wednesday.
“Later today we would let Nigerians know our direction,” he said.
