… Demands top-class foreign coach for Super Eagles 

Sports Minister John Owan Enoh has said the next foreign coach for the Super Eagles must be a first-class coach, who will command the respect of the players and be convinced he can qualify Nigeria to the 2026 World Cup.
The NFF have announced they will appoint a new foreign coach to lead the Super Eagles before the 2025 AFCON qualifiers begin in September.
“It has to be a name that will inspire the spirit of our nation,” Sports Minister John Enoh told Eagle7 FM
“He has to be a first-class coach with a track record, a pedigree, who will earn the respect of our players.”
However, the minister also said it is the responsibility of the NFF to pay such a coach.
He said the Federal Government alone cannot continue to fund sports in the country and as such he is exploring other options like the private sector, wealthy Nigerians as well as crowd funding to boost the financial base of sports.
