NFF Denies Appointing Paul Le Guen As Super Eagles Manager by joey150(op): 8:40pm On Jul 19, 2016
Nigera Football Federation has denied appointing the Frenchman, the association has come out to claim that his appointment was always subject to approval.

The Federation have come out to clarify the matter with this statememt. Insisting that the techinical commitee only made a reccomendation and that a final decision has not been reached.




Chairman of the NFF Media and Publicity Committee, Hon. Suleiman Yahaya-Kwande said in a statement.

“In truth, the Technical and Development Committee perused the profiles of all the coaches who submitted applications and find Mr. Paul Le Guen suitable for the post. But during final negotiations, he objected to being given a target and also did not wish to live in Nigeria, which was a sore point with the Board.

“The job of Head Coach of Nigeria is a very big one and there is no way anyone will get such a job without being handed a target.

“There is absolutely no issue with Le Guen saying he is not coming; several highly –qualified persons would be happy to be named Manager of the Senior National Team of Nigeria. We have a plan to take care of that eventuality.”

no hope for poor man in this country oh. the government no send at all. if you like kill yourself nobody cares. na who dem catch be thief. even the thief way dem catch day walk free. imagine the government are retrieving our money from looters secretly. they are returning the money behind closed doors. what a classy and cozy way to deal with an audacious criminal. criminals still wear suits and agbada instead of jumpsuits. them day speak English give us in exchange of our wealth. just see how a big time criminal called a blogger a minion yesterday. thats how they see us. sometimes i no blame the Niger Delta Avengers oh. or the Biafrans. the government needs serious heat to make any change at all. if not na so we go day day oh. we are really minions. our lives dont matter at all.
Re: NFF Denies Appointing Paul Le Guen As Super Eagles Manager by Nobody:
Don't know why we love imported goods and services so much

Egypt won three ANC in a row with a domestic coach
Spain won World Cup and Euro with a Spaniard
Germany won world cup a German
Portugal won Euro with a Portuguese
Wales, France, Germany, and Portugal (all semi finalists in Euro 2016) had indigenous coaches
Brazil won with Scolari in 2002
Nigeria won with Keshi in 2013

So, do we still need soothsayers that our solutions lie with domestic coaches?

Same NFF that owed Keshi, Amodu, Siasia wants to hire a foreign coach.
