Finidi’s Super Eagles appointment good for NPFL coaches – Ogunmodede

Remo Stars technical adviser Daniel Ogunmodede has said Finidi George’s appointment as the interim coach of Super Eagles is a good omen for Nigeria Premier Football League coaches.

He said Finidi’s appointment will further project the image of the NPFL.

“I feel so elated with Finidi’s appointment as the Interim coach of the Super Eagles,” he told the Duchess of Sport.

“I’m the general secretary of NPFL club managers, it’s a good representation and gives us a very good image.

“I’m so proud that one of us is handling the senior national team, not just the age grade teams.

“And he came out victorious in the first match. For us as managers in the league, we know how much this will promote our profession as coaches.

“His appointment is giving a touch light to our local coaches that we can also do it which he has done in the first match. Hopefully he can do that in the second match.”

Finidi George will lead the Super Eagles in their next friendly against Mali on Tuesday.

The game is billed for the Grand Stade de Marrakech, Morocco.
