Newly appointed Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, said he is proud and honoured to manage the team.
Chelle was unveiled at an elaborate ceremony at the media conference room of the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja on Monday.
The 47-year-old quit his role with Algerian club, MC Oran to accept the offer to manage the Super Eagles.
He said, “I’m so proud and honoured to be the new Super Eagles head coach. Nigeria has a great history with quality players like Ikpeba, Amokachi, Amuneke, Yekini, Oliseh, Eguavoen, Finidi, West, Obi Mikel and Babangida,” Chelle said at his unveiling.
“I was a fan then and with this new generation too, Lookman, Osimhen and others.”
Chelle further said, “I love scoring goals. My teams are never lacking in goals, and the Super Eagles will be no exception, we will score goals.”
