José Peseiro – the Portuguese silver winning coach of the Nigeria men’s football team, Super Eagles, has quit the job.
Recall that Peseiro’s contract expires at the end of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) which was just concluded in Ivory Coast last February.
Following this, the Technical Director of the team, Austin Eguavoen, is reportedly to be in charge of the team in the interim and will be assisted by a former team mate and assistant to the Portuguese, Finidi George.
Peseiro was in charge of the team for 22 months after he was appointed by the Amaju Pinnik executive in 2022. He recorded 11 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses from the 22 matches he coached.
