🚨 #Göztepe Anthony Dennis attracting interest from Hoffenheim, Mainz, Augsburg & Stuttgart.

📌 Anderlecht → €3.3M bid in June 2025 rejected.

📑 Göztepe → Expecting higher fee.

Sugarboyy:
Give the position to Emelano and Olofijana to replace Gusau and Dikko or Gusau and Eguavoen.
I just pray the presidency doesn't consider Omokachi because he is close to the presidency

Amokachie,Okocha and Kanu should not be considered cuz this time around we need intellectual who knows the game,I would have suggested Odegbami but baba is old but Mike Emenalo should be the main man,if he rejected it then why not Seyi Olofinjana.......these three mentioned personalities, checking their profiles after retired from the game, administrative they are solid.

It seems oga Kunle Soname is not interested cos his name was on a radar bfr I really wish he could give it a shot. Time will tell

Sugarboyy:
We are saying the same thing but in a different ways.
Was insinuating that with his qualification, Emenalo will succeed if he doesn't allow greed to come into him if he gets the position

Ok

🚨🇳🇬 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: The NFF Executive Committee has asked members of the Super Falcons technical crew to step down with immediate effect.

A major shake-up has been ordered following the Falcons’ disappointing WAFCON campaign.

I don't tire for this guy and attracting interest. Every transfer windows he is attracting interest and nothing concrete seem to ever happen. I watched him a couple of times and he looked a very good player. Eric Chelle love Wilfred Ndidi. Rafael Onyedika, Tochukwu Nnadi, and Lesley Ugochukwu are all ahead of him. He is technically good and definitely need to leave Turkey. I don't really think he is better than the options we currently have in that DM position though. A move to the top 5 leagues and good performances will definitely get him on the waiting list but we are currently stacked in that position.

Amokachi, Okocha and Kanu are not different from those at the helm now and for Odegbemi, he is too old.
Emenalo, Olofijana and their likes are what we need, paired with some core business men to help handle the business side of the game

Go and get Mike Emenalo to run the NFF. He has managed and achieved success at the highest level. For a black African man to have risen and achieved what he has accomplished post his football carear tells you how competent he is. He is going to clean up Nigerian football and he will bring back professionalism to the way the NFF is run on daily basis. Somebody with his profile and accomplishments will also make it easier for us to chase some these dual nationals. We don't need politicians be it current or former running our football. Nigerian politicians are just bad administrators and they all have high tolerance level for corruption.

Do you know who's Kojo Williams?

I have not heard of him but if his CV is as impressive and he is not former or current Nigerian politician then I am all good. The only thing I care about is somebody that will bring joy back to the fan of Nigerian football. I was absolutely gutted of not being able to see the super eagles live at the world cup here in the United States. It would have been once in a lifetime experience.

Yes I said Odegbami is old but I would love him to be advisory to the scheme of things,the man is loaded administratively,really surprised that Odegbami is as rich as our retired professionals like Okocha,Kanu and Ikpeba and he stopped playing ball in 1984 as home based player....also Mike Emenalo didn't made money as a player but as an administrator.Yes Seyi Olofinjana averagely made money but he is making more now,these are the kind of people we need in NFF.

Segun Odegbami singlehandedly finance Chioma Ajunwa training program and at the end Nigeria won her first Olympics gold medal through Chioma...we need people who can think out of the box.

Kojo Williams was former NFF president who was impeached cuz he wanted to turn things around but the cabal made sure he was impeached just months in office,funny his Dad was respected sport administrator throughout the world named Chief S.B Williams.

I made reference to him cuz presidency need total overhauling of NFF,no need for sentimental approach,snake must be killed with no mercy if one don't,it bite back....real structure...Kojo Williams failed cuz he was the only one that wanted total change,so it's not about NFF president but all the members.

County me in then. I just want some body that will go in there and bring professionalism back.

Emenalo,Olofinjana and Mikel are my preferred ex internationals for the job,

Odegbami at this age is still way more preferred by me than what we have had for the past decade.

If Okocha,Kanu,Amokachi,even Oliseh is considered, it would still be better for us than all these politicians, because we know that they love the game,and If they fail,at least we would be sure that they failed sincerely.

John Fashanu is another option. He was in the system before..

if they sign Azeez then Zadok may need to leave on loan

Big Fash the Cash is recuperating now,with his daughter Amal enjoying vacation......Yes I remember he served NFF as board member but Nigeria sport cabal damn too strong for men with ideas to survive,fact it was John Fashanu with Segun Odegbami that brokered Wembley showdown England vs Nigeria,that match exposed NFF financial irregularities cuz it was done with no financial implications.

Mike Emenalo should be the man.

But for Mike to leave Saudi Pro league to come work at the NFF, the president must be involved to drag him down here and he must have genuinely be willing

I think Emenalo and Seyi are more known for the technical side of the game rather than their administrative side

I feel Mikel talks too much and could easily cave into pressure

If I will throw up a name for the NFF president I will suggest Mr Godwin Enakhena that is if he will be given a free hand to operate but he has insisted he is not interested in the position.

And as for the women coaching position let us go get a former Nigerian international like say Omagbemi and give her the right support and facilities she needs and try to also involve or blend older senior female internationals to speak with the girls

Just watched Odegbami's interview. Definitely a brilliant mind. Outside of NFF, am somewhat surprised and also disappointed that after the 94 set, we aren't seeing coaches come out of our ex-players. It doesn't make sense to me.

Great guy tbh. Hopefully the next couple of years would be really good for him on the field. Seems like he is one of the last men standing from their U17. Kels playing in Turkish 2nd div though.

Ndidi is also there. He was part of the 2013 U17 Class but did not make the WC Squad.

Akor Adams has always held Great Admiration for Victor Osimhen so it is no surprise to me but at the same time, wholesome to see him dorning same #45 Jersey Number as Osimhen.

Like Osimhen, like Akor 🤝🏿🇳🇬🇳🇬
