The newly appointed head coach of the Super Eagles, Finidi George has resigned from his position.
Finidi’s resignation is coming days after the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, announced moves to bring in an expatriate technical adviser.
His exit was confirmed in Saturday by former Eagles media officer, Toyin Ibitoye, on his X account.
Ibitoye wrote: “News just in: Finidi George @FinidiGeorge_FG has resigned from his @NGSuperEagles manager position.”
Finidi was only appointed on April 29, 2024, to replace Jose Peseiro, whose contract expired in February.
During his very brief tenure, the former Enyimba boss oversaw a 1-1 draw with South Africa and a 2-1 defeat to Benin Republic, both in the 2026 World Cup qualifying series.
