Former assistant coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles Sylvanus Okpala has stated that Super Eagles chief coach and first assistant to the expected foreign Technical Adviser Salisu Yusuf appears well placed to take up the vacant position of Super Eagles Technical Adviser ahead of next month’s AFCON 2023 qualifiers first window.
Okpala speaking in a chat with www.brila.net said it is clear the Nigeria Football Federation has absolute confidence in the ability of Salisu to have continued to retain his position in the national team under different managers and also been handed more portfolios in the national team.
He added that it is good to say the best coach in Nigeria is known already and looks primed to lead the team next month with the continued delay in appointing a substantive Technical Adviser.
