Since Portuguese tactician, Jose Peseiro, parted ways with the NFF in March, Amunike’s former international teammate, Finidi George, has been managing the Super Eagles’ team in an interim capacity.
How true is the claim that Amunike, 53, is now the new head coach of the national team?
Amunike:
No official announcement from NFF On Sunday afternoon, April 21, a call was put through to Ademola Olajire, NFF’s director of communications, for official comments on the alleged development, but he terminated the calls without picking up.
Olajire also did not respond to our SMS inquiry as of the time of publishing this report.
What we know is that the NFF has not officially named the new Super Eagles coach.
As former media officer of the Future Eagles, Adepoju Tobi, stated on his verified social media pages, “the news of an appointment is the speculation of the media and their sources but the NFF has not issued an official statement”.
