NFF Under Fire for Potential Replacement of Super Eagles Coach Eric Chelle
The NFF faces criticism over a rumored plan to replace Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle with legend Augustine Eguavoen. Chelle's future is uncertain after the team's struggles in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Eguavoen previously led the team in 2005 and may return as technical director. The NFF's history of coaching changes, including Chukwu, Lagerback, and Keshi, adds complexity to the situation.
Chelle's appointment in December 2024 could be short-lived if the NFF decides on a new direction for the team.
