Fan Warns NFF Against Sacking Super Eagles Coach Amid World Cup Qualification Hopes
A Nigerian football fan has warned the NFF against sacking Super Eagles coach, Eric Chelle, amid rumors of his potential dismissal. Chelle took over from Austin Eguavoen in the quest to secure Nigeria's 2026 FIFA World Cup ticket, following a challenging start to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Despite facing pressure due to mixed results, Chelle still has a chance to lead Nigeria to the World Cup playoffs if they perform well in the remaining qualifiers. The NFF is reportedly considering drastic decisions if Nigeria fails to secure an automatic ticket.
