The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has concluded plans to hire a foreign technical adviser for the national football team, the Super Eagles.
The decision follows recent dismal performances under coach former Enyimba coach, Finidi George.
The Executive Committee of the NFF rose from its board meeting on Thursday and resolved to employ an expatriate for the Super Eagles in the coming weeks.
The technical adviser is expected to lead the team ahead of the AFCON qualifiers and the remaining FIFA World Cup qualifying matches.
“The Committee resolved to beef up the NFF Technical Department with more qualitative hands. Equally, the Technical and Development Sub-Committee will be re-jigged with immediate effect,” a communique released after the meeting revealed.
