New Eagles’ boss, Le Guen steered the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon
to the 2010 FIFA World Cup finals. He played for Brest, Nantes and
Paris Saint Germain and won 17 caps for France, before coaching Rennes,
Lyon, PSG (in France) and Glasgow Rangers (in Scotland). He also coached
Oman.
Spokesman
of the Committee, Paul Bassey, told thenff.com after the meeting at the
NFF secretariat on Monday that Enugu Rangers gaffer Imama Amapakabo and
former Super Eagles’ goalkeeper and skipper Alloy Agu, who served as
assistant coach and goalkeeper trainer for the games against Mali and
Luxembourg in May, retain their places in the technical crew.
The
new crew’s immediate challenge is a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations
qualifier against Tanzania in the first week of September – a dead
rubber, but which would serve as ample preparation for the 2018 FIFA
World Cup qualifying match away to Zambia on October 3.
The
Committee has also recommended to the NFF Board, the appointment of one
–time Super Eagles’ assistant coach Bitrus Bewarang as the new NFF
Technical Director. Bewarang, who is president of the Nigeria Football
Coaches Association, will replace the late Coach Shaibu Amodu.
There
is also a recommendation that former Super Eagles’ defender Nduka
Ugbade be restored to the U17 National Team as assistant to Coach Manu
Garba.
