NFF SHORTLISTS LE GUEN, YUSUF & SAINFIET FOR EAGLES' JOB

The three-time African champions are closing in on naming their new coach after whittling down the list of candidates for the job

Salisu Yusuf, Paul Le Guen and Tom Sainfiet are on a three-man shortlist to replace Sunday Oliseh as Nigeria coach.

Oliseh ended his reign in charge of the Super Eagles following the country’s poor showing at the 2017 Africa Nations Championship, with the Nigeria Football Federation receiving application letters from over 20 coaches to replace him.

Former Nigeria internationals Peter Ijeh and Sylvanus Okpala as well as Adebayo Lateef Kola were all on the list.

However, Frenchman Le Guen who once handled the Cameroonian national team, former Ethiopia handler Sainfiet who once handled Namibia, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Togo and interim Super Eagles coach Salisu are now among those being considered.
