The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) has decided to appoint a foreign technical adviser for the Super Eagles following their underwhelming performance in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

This move aims to inject fresh expertise and strategies into the national team, which has struggled to meet expectations on the international stage.

The decision to seek foreign guidance comes in the wake of mounting criticism and pressure to enhance the team’s competitiveness.

Despite interim coach Finidi George’s efforts, the Super Eagles’ recent outings have highlighted the need for a more experienced and tactical approach to management.

By bringing in an international coach, the NFF hopes to leverage global football knowledge and techniques to rejuvenate the team and improve their future prospects.

This step is seen as crucial in aligning Nigerian football with global standards and ensuring that the Super Eagles can once again become a dominant force in world football.
