The new Super Eagles technical crew will be unveiled today when the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), officially presents to the public the new Head Coach of the senior national men’s football team, Éric Sékou Chelle, in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
According to the NFF, the event has been scheduled for the Media Conference Room of the MKO Abiola National Stadium.
Chelle’s appointment was confirmed last Tuesday by the NFF Executive Committee, following a recommendation by the football ruling body’s Technical and Development Committee.
NFF president, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau, said on Sunday that the Franco-Malian embodies the fresh energy, new thinking and positive attitude with which the Federation desire the Super Eagles to confront their remaining six matches in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.
“We appreciate the fact that Nigerians are very passionate about the game of football, and that is the reason for the different tones of reactions following the appointment of Coach Chelle. However, the NFF hereby appeals to Nigerians to come together and support him, as we believe he has the qualities to achieve success with the Super Eagles.
“The NFF will give him all the support that he needs to succeed in the job.”
