Former Super Eagles defender, Ben Iroha has advocated for the appointment of a local coach for the team as he insist the what the 3-time champion needs is a Manager the players respect and are willing to play for.
Iroha who was a member of Nigeria’s golden generation in the 90s welcomed the Nff’s decision to throw the offer of the Eagles top job open and stressed that the process of hiring a permanent and long serving Boss must be meticulous and carefully done regardless of how long the process might run.
The former player also believes former teammates, Austin Eguavoen, Samson Siasia and current interim coach, Salisu Yusuf are capable of taking up the reins of the Eagles.
