Super Eagles: New Coach Eric Chelle to Arrive Sunday with Three Assistants
Newly appointed Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle is set to arrive in Nigeria on Sunday to sign his contract.
Chelle will be accompanied by three of his trusted assistants.
According to CityMirror, these assistants worked with him during his tenure as manager of the Mali national team and more recently at Algerian club MC Oran.
The 47-year-old was officially announced as the Super Eagles head coach by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on Tuesday.
Chelle has been tasked with the critical mission of leading the Super Eagles to qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be co-hosted by Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
The Super Eagles currently remain winless in Group C after four games.
They are set to face the Amavubi of Rwanda away when the qualifiers resume in March.
