Technical director of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Augustine Eguavoen claimed Super Falcons head coach Randy Waldrum has apologized for his recent outburst.
PROMPT NEWS reports that Waldrum and NFF have engaged in war words in recent weeks.
The 66-year-old was unhappy with lack of support from the NFF and also claimed the football house misappropriated funds made available to all teams that will participate at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
“I am not comfortable with what I’ve been reading. I spoke with him. He apologized, he said he didn’t mean it that way,” Eguavoen told reporters.
“He felt if he speaks with a couple of people things will change, but it is not like that here, Nigeria is different, and Africa is different.
“But we have to do the right thing now, I’ve told him to just remain focused and forget about every other thing.
“Then as soon as the World Cup ends, we know what to do because everything coming up every now and then is a distraction for him and the team.”
The Super Eagles are currently camping in Brisbane ahead of the World Cup.
