Appointing Foreign Coach will Cost Eagles Russia 2018 qualification - Sport

A former coach of the Super Falcons, Godwin Izilein, on Wednesday in Benin warned against appointing a foreign coach for the Super Eagles now.

Izilein told the newsmen that the senior national male football team may not qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia as a result of this.
“This is because the foreign handler will not have quality time to know the players and their mentality,’’ he said.
Izilein, also a former coach of the Golden Eaglets, said appointing a foreign coach was equally an unnecessary waste of fund and shows lack of respect for Nigerian coaches.
“I don’t know what this rush for a foreign coach is all about, when we do not have time on our hands for the qualification games for Russia 2018.
