Super Eagles coaching job: NFF’s delayed decision worry stakeholders
Some former Nigeria internationals have given their verdict regarding Super Eagles caretaker coach, Augustine Eguavoen’s uncertain future with the national team.

There were recent reports that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is still mulling the idea of employing a foreign coach for the Super Eagles.

The NFF had appointed Eguavoen to take charge of the Super Eagles on interim capacity in September, this year.

Eguavoen guided the team through the recently concluded 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, qualifiers.

Under his guidance, the Super Eagles secured qualification from Group D with three wins, two draws and one defeat from six matches.

But the 59-year-old’s future is, however, uncertain with the NFF reportedly still planning to hire a foreign coach for the three-time African champions ahead of the 2026 World Cup qualifier against Rwanda in March, 2025.
