Foreign coach to take over Super Falcons
Nigeria’s Super Falcons will be coached by a foreigner if the recommendation of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Technical sub Committee is ratified by the exco.
The senior women’s team have been without a coach since Uche Eucharia was fired last year, and the NFF have been in no hurry to name a replacement.
Earlier this week, a statement from NFF Spokesman Ademola Olajire said the new coach will be named this month, and Tidesports source gathers that the Technical Committee recommended a European coach with the choice being among a woman coach from France, Holland or Germany.
A number of locals, including former coaches and former internationals, had been rumored to be in the running for the job, but a source within the committee informed that they had opted against any of those.
