JUST IN: “It Ends Today” Super Eagles Interim Coach Quits

Augustine Eguavoen, the Super Eagles’ acting coach has announced his resignation from the position following Tuesday’s game in Kigali against Rwanda.

Speaking to OwnGoalNigeria at the Kigali Airport, the Nigerian strategist stated that his assignment was to supervise the Eagles’ 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Rwanda and Benin Republic, and that was the end of it.

He said, “I have been given a mandate to handle two games. I will want to say I am very pleased with the boys and again, thanks to the NFF leadership and all the boys who supported me in terms of discipline and working hard.

“It ends today, which is the two games mandate. I can’t talk about Libya, because I haven’t been told but I can talk about it a little bit in case we have another coach, we can talk about it.”

He did, however, mention that he would be available to provide tactical guidance on how to defeat Libya, the Eagles’ next opponent, should the Nigeria Football Federation choose to name a different coach.

“I want to be closer to the team as it should be and I can give inside story and inside information that we need to be able to overcome Libya. No team is a pushover anymore but with this spirit that these boys have exhibited and from what I have seen, we have a very bright future,” Eguavoen stated.

On Friday, August 30, 2024, the NFF appointed Eguavoen as the team’s interim coach, following its inability to secure the services of German coach, Bruno Labbadia, due to stringent German tax laws.
