The Nigerian Football Federation, NFF has directed the Head Coach of the Super Eagles, Sunday Oliseh to henceforth be reporting to its Technical Director, Amodu Shuaibu.
The Chairman, Technical and Development Committee of the football federation, Chris Green said that the directive was to allow for smoother coordination.
The News Agency of Nigeria, NAN reports that Green said on Thursday in Abuja that NFF’s Technical Department was structured to make all the national team coaches report directly to the Technical Director.
“Shuaibu Amodu is the National Technical Director and as such he is involved in all the games of the national teams, whether in the under-17, under-20 or Super Eagles.
“Normally, as the National Technical Director, Oliseh will report to him (Amodu), while he (Amodu) reports to the Technical Committee and from there to the General Secretary and finally to the Executive Committee of the NFF.
“His (Amodu) function is to prepare programmes for the Federation for the various national teams for the next five years. So, for every game we play, he is involved by virtue of his position.
“All of us will have to work together. Oliseh is the Head Coach of the Super Eagles, while Amodu is the National Technical Director.
“However, Amodu is not directly involved in the handling of the Super Eagles, but he is directly involved in the formulation of policies and programmes for all the national teams,” he said.
He assured that the Technical Director would not usurp the duties of the Head Coach.
“He will only give directives through his programmes and policies for the team, ahead of the qualifiers with Egypt, Tanzania and Chad,” he added.
