The German coach is expected to select two foreign assistants, while the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) will appoint local coaches. Labbadia is reportedly considering Erdinç Sözer, Olaf Janßen, and Bernhard Trares for the roles.

Sözer, regarded as Labbadia’s most trusted assistant, is likely to be his top pick. The duo has collaborated at several clubs, including Bayer Leverkusen, VfB Stuttgart, VfL Wolfsburg, and Hertha Berlin. Sözer is currently available after leaving Turkish club Samsunspor on June 30, 2024. Former center-back Trares began working with Labbadia in 2015 at Hamburg and later at VfB Stuttgart. He is also without a club. Janßen, currently the manager of Viktoria Köln, might not be available due to his current commitments.
