The Executive
Committee of Nigeria Football Federation on Thursday approved the
recommendation of its Technical and Development Sub-Committee for the
Federation’s Technical Director, Coach Augustine Eguavoen to continue in his
role as Head Coach of the Super Eagles, and lead the team in its 2025 Africa
Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Libya next month.
The 58-year-old, in
temporary charge of the squad he had led three times previously, steered the
three-time African champions to a 3-0 defeat of Benin Republic and scoreless
draw with Rwanda in Matchdays 1 and 2 earlier this month.
Eguavoen and the
current technical crew that also includes Fidelis Ilechukwu, Daniel Ogunmodede,
Olatunji Baruwa and Tomaz Zorec will also take charge of the Super Eagles B
team for the qualifying campaign for next year’s African Nations Championship,
otherwise known as CHAN.
With the departure of
Mr. Randy Waldrum, the Executive Committee also approved the recommendation of
the Technical and Development Sub-Committee for Coach Justin Madugu to lead the
remaining technical crew and take charge of the Senior Women National Team,
Super Falcons, pending the appointment of a substantive Head Coach.
The Super Falcons’
next big engagement is the Women Africa Cup of Nations finals, taking place in
Morocco in the summer of next year.
