Amuneke expresses readiness to take over Super Eagles

Former Super Eagles winger, Emmanuel Amuneke has said he is willing to take charge of the team following the uncertainties surrounding the future of head coach, Jose Peseiro.

Peseiro led the Super Eagles to a second-place finish at the recently concluded 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The contract of the Portuguese, however, ended with the AFCON and there are calls for him to be replaced by a local coach.


Amuneke, who once worked as assistant coach to Austine Eguavoen in the Super Eagles said he is ready to serve the country again.

“I am a Nigerian, all my life I have served Nigeria as a player. If Nigerians now find me fit to add value to the team, of course, it is a welcome development,” Amuneke said in an interview on Central Television.

“But for now it is not necessary to talk about this issue.

“We have to support the team and other Nigerians, they are going through a lot of sadness.

“We all want the best for our country, the best for our football. This has to be respected.”

That Mourinho man should getat

This one will fail woefully just like Tinubu.

Should Nigeria follow the trend in Africa to appoint a local coach like Senegal, Côte d ivore etc after all they all followed Nigeria pattern when we started it with Keshi


It should be noted that:

"Head coach of the Super Eagles, Jose Peseiro, is out of contract following the completion of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Peseiro signed a new contract with the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, last year.

The deal was for a short term.

The 63-year-old penned a six-month contract that expired at the end of the AFCON.

A key clause in the contract was for Peseiro to reach the AFCON semi-finals.

The Portuguese surpassed that by leading the Eagles to the final, where they lost 2-1 to hosts Ivory Coast.

It remains to be seen what decision the NFF will take on Peseiro’s future now that the tournament has ended."
