Former Super Eagles defender, Sam Sodje has blasted the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for delaying the appointment of a new head coach for the team.
The position of the Super Eagles head coach has remained vacant since Finidi George left the post in June.
The Super Eagles will take on Benin Republic and Rwanda in their opening two games in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers next month.
Sodje voiced his displeasure over NFF’s lackadaisical attitude to appoint a new head coach for the team.
“It’s just sad that we’re still talking about a coach and there’s nothing we can say,” Sodje told Brila FM.
“Not only football, but sports in the country have really gone down. I think football has been something that we have to agree that we’ve lost touch with.
“Not having a coach at this time is terrible. But just because we have to play the game, having an interim manager might be the best idea, but it has to be done ASAP.” READ ALSO:
