Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) confirms Augustine Eguavoen will continue as caretaker manager for the Super Eagles. This comes amidst speculation following his previous claim of stepping aside after a draw in Rwanda, despite now having to prepare for upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Libya.
On Thursday, the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, confirmed that Augustien Eguavoen will continue in his role as caretaker of the Super Eagles . It ended speculations over who would handle the national team for the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixtures against Libya in October. Eguavoen had caused a bit of stir, after he appeared to step aside following a 0-0 draw in Rwanda, claiming he was only handed a brief for two matches. 'It ends today.
'That is, assuming Eguavoen has not impressed enough and they still want the new foreign coach.' Another point of view is that Eguavoen has been asked to continue in the meantime, so the NFF can continue their search for an expatriate. But is there a scenario where the former defender is given the job on a permanent basis again? 'Yes,' McDubus replies.
