Le Guen set to be named Super Eagles coach

A top official in the technical department of the Nigeria Football Federation has disclosed that the football house are set to appoint Paul Le Guen as the coach of the Super Eagles.


This came after Belgian coach, Tom Saintfiet, who was among the three shortlisted coaches for the Super Eagles mana gerial job, ruled himself out of the race to accept the Bandaglesh job, thereby leaving Le Guen and Salisu Yusuf for the position.


However, the NFF insistence to hire a manager worthy of qualifying the team for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, now puts Le Guen in pole position to fill the gap left behind by Samson Siasia.


According to the reliable source in the Glass House, he says the NFF are almost certain of appointing the French coach for the senior national team.
