Paul Le Guen has been named the new Technical Adviser of the Super Eagles, by the Technical and Development Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on Monday.
The 52-year-old Frenchman will be assisted by Salisu Yusuf, who has been appointed as Chief Coach.
Le Guen was in charge of Cameroon, when they featured at the 2010 World Cup and has coached clubs like Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain and Nantes.
Spokesman of the Committee, Paul Bassey, told thenff.com, that Enugu Rangers coach, Imama Amapakabo and former Super Eagles’ goalkeeper and skipper Alloy Agu, who served as assistant coach and goalkeeper trainer for the games against Mali and Luxembourg in May, retain their places in the technical crew.
