Waldrum Steps Down as Super Falcons Head Coach Due to Family Health Concerns
Randy Waldrum, the head coach of the Super Falcons, has decided to step down from his role.
Waldrum, who has led the team since 2020, announced that he is resigning due to serious health issues affecting his wife.
In his resignation statement, Waldrum shared the profound personal challenges he has faced in recent weeks, especially following the Olympics.
The stress and concern over his wife’s health have deeply impacted him.
He expressed that the decision to resign was not made lightly, emphasizing the need for a new coach to take over and continue leading the Super Falcons.
Waldrum’s departure provides the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) with the opportunity to find a successor who will build on the strong foundation laid by his tenure.
Prior to his role with the Super Falcons, Waldrum was the head coach of Trinidad and Tobago and initially declined an offer to manage the team three years before accepting the position.
Throughout his tenure, he also balanced responsibilities as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Panthers.
Waldrum’s final match in charge of the Super Falcons was during the group stage of the 2024 Olympic Games.
His resignation marks the end of a significant chapter for the team, as they prepare for the transition to a new leadership era.
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.

“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.

He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
