Remain blessed.Do you also know that He was a champion league winner with a team that ruled the world for over ten years. He played every single match for 90 minutes as a first team player and was the livewire of players like Marco Van Basten,Rudd Gulllit,Frank Rijkard,Frank Koeman,Marc Overmars,and the other dutch and later barca striker with his killer passes and assists.Most people here dont know his magnitude and soccer process.

Van Basten and Ruud Gullit kè? Those guys were no longer at Ajax when Finidi joined the club and won the Champions league. Maybe you mean Jari Litmanen and Patrick Kluivert.

Oga! Exaggeration plenty for this your comment, Finidi did not play alongside all those in bold, his partner in the list were Frank Rijkard & Marc overmars, he also played alongside Patrick kluivert, De'boer's brother, Seedorf, Edgar David etc.

Of all the people you mentioned he only played with Marc Overmars and Rijkard. But yes, he was a very good winger and won a lot of titles with Ajax.

I eish him goodluck in his endeavors

but there are so many youth club around
its also good to be the manager of under 17 players

Goodluck to him

Finidi George was among those that made us proud in their days. He was among the best. New indomie generation won't know him much. carry on sir.

As a member of the All-conquering Ajax Amsterdam FC team of 1995, that won the Dutch Eredivisie (league), Dutch FA Cup, UEFA Champions League, FIFA World Club Cup, playing alongside the legends like Frank Rijkaard, Danny Blind, Marc Overmars, Frank De Boer, Ronald De Boer, Jari Litmanen, Kanu Nwankwo, Aaron Winter, Edgar Davids etc, Finidi made his mark as the player who scored the all important away goal that secured a 1-1 draw between the super eagles of Nigeria and the Cherif Oujanni led Desert Warriors of Algeria in October 1993 all important last World Cup qualifiers in far away Annaba, Algeria. His goal took Nigeria to her first ever FIFA World Cup at USA 94, which till date remains our best performance at the Mundial, beating the likes of Hristo Stoichkov (the best free Kick taker in the world and Barcelona talisman) led Bulgaria, 3-0 and Greece 2-0 where Finidi scored the last goal. On his debut for the Super Eagles, in 1991 for the Senegal'92 Nations Cup qualifier, Finidi scored the last goal in the 7-1 mauling of Burkina Fasso by the super eagles of Nigeria, prompting the fans to start singing "e don do" - to the avalanche of goals scored to pepper the Burkinabes. He was also a key member of the all conquering Super Eagles team that won the African Cup of Nations at Tunisia'94. This tale of glory made Him the best winger in the world as voted by FIFA technocrats in 1995. It was said then that if Finidi George cross a corner kick to an amateur player in the Nigerian league, that player will score even against Brazil or Germany. He was so good with his crosses, and runs through the right flanks.Unfortunately, he lost his younger brother Iginewari Gerorge to some reckless shooting by a police officer targeting a Marco Polo bus carrying players from Enugu Rangers in 1995. Iginewari was suppose to step into his shoes having played FIFA U-16 World Cup for Nigeria in 1995. Many believed Finidi never recovered from that tragedy, and the NFA and Nigerian authorities did not do enough to bring the perpetrator to justice and Finidi was heart broken, and he never really recovered. Series of knee injuries afterwards knocked him off competitive football and the rest is history.

This is the man begging Nigeria to coach her U-16 for free? Even if he does not possess the classroom qualifications as a certified coach, please give it to him based on his service to his fatherland and most importantly to the memory of Iginewari, who died 22 years ago !
