NFF reappoints Manu Garba as Golden Eaglets head coach
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has reappointed Manu Garba as the head coach of the Golden Eaglets.
The federation announced the appointment in a statement on Friday.
Garba held the same position in 2013 when he led the Golden Eaglets to win the FIFA U17 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
His world-conquering squad included Kelechi Iheanacho, Taiwo Awoniyi, Isaac Success, Musa Mohammed, Chidiebere Nwakali and Dele Alampasu.
After a brief stint handling the men’s U-20 squad, Garba was reappointed to the Golden Eaglet role in 2018.
His second spell bore little success as his team crashed out in the Round of 16 of the 2019 U-17 World Cup in Brazil.
Garba’s latest stint with the team will commence with the preparation for next month’s WAFU B U-17 Championship, taking place in Ghana.
He will be hoping to put together a team that will surpass Nigeria’s performance at the 2023 U-17 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), where the country crashed out in the quarter-final and failed to qualify for the age-grade World Cup.
