Augustine Eguavoen will continue in his role as the interim coach of the Super Eagles, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has said.
NFF disclosed this in a statement on X on Thursday, saying the appointment followed a recommendation from the NFF’s Technical and Development Sub-Committee.
Eguavoen, who had been serving as the NFF’s Technical Director, will now lead the national team in their upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Libya, scheduled for next month.
This appointment solidifies his position after a successful stint as interim coach.
Similarly, the NFF Executive Committee also “approved the recommendation of the Technical and Development Sub-Committee for Coach Justin Madugu to lead the remaining technical crew and take charge of the Senior Women National Team, Super Falcons, pending the appointment of a substantive Head Coach.”
The appointment followed the shock departure of Randy Waldrum as the boss.
The Super Falcons’ next big engagement is the Women Africa Cup of Nations finals, taking place in Morocco in the summer of next year.
