President General of the Nigeria Football Supporters Club (NFSC), Dr. Rafiu OLadipo has thrown his weight behinde the appointment of a new head coach for the Super Eagles.

In an exclusive chat with New Nigerian Sports in his Lagos office, he said that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) through the Secretary General, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi announced German tactician, Bruno Labbadia as the new head coach of the Super Eagles to replace Finidi George, who quit the job in June after two games in charge without a win.

Reacting to the appointment of a new head coach for the Super Eagles, Dr OLadipo said it is long overdue, considering the fact that for several months the three-time African Champions have been without a coach.

OLadipo noted, the announcement of Labbadia’s appointment would return confidence in the Super Eagles camp as they prepare for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Benin Republic and Rwanda on September 7th and 10th respectively.

”Also believing that the NFF must have done their home work well before settling for a German with the hope that he has the technical know how to take the Super Eagles to a higher level and called on football loving Nigerians to back him at achieving the desire success with the senior national team.

“Well, Labbadia is a German football tactician and the NFF has announced his appointment as the now chief tactician that will pilot the affairs of the Super Eagles qualifying us for both the Nations

World cup respectively

“How do you prosecute all those matches without a coach. Now that a coach has been appointed I wish him success at the end of it all”.

On knowing his pedigree, He explained not knowing much about him but I want believe that the football house would have taking into consideration his technical ability. Since, they have announced him as coach, we’ll wait and see but the most important thing is we must all come together to support him and support the Super Eagles to qualify for both the Africa Cup of Nations, as well as the World Cup,” OLadipo concluded.
