American-Nigerian coach, Michael Nsien is one of the leading candidates to become the new head coach of the Super Eagles, according to reports.
The position became vacant following the expiration of erstwhile handler Jose Peseiro’s contract last month.
Former Nigeria internationals, Emmanuel Amuneke, Finidi George, who served as one of the assistants to Peseiro and Ndubuisi Egbo are among the names said to be under consideration by the the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
Nsien has joined the list of coaches, who could take over from Peseiro. READ ALSO:
