In a statement issued by its General Secretary, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, the NFF said the development was part of moves to reconstitute the technical committee of the national team.

It said: “The NFF Board has approved a recommendation of the Technical and Development Committee retaining Augustine Eguavoen as Technical Director/Technical Adviser (interim) while Emmanuel Amuneke becomes the Chief Coach of the Super Eagles.

“Salisu Yusuf will be the 2nd Assistant Coach/Chief Coach of the CHAN team and Joseph Yobo will be 3rd Assistant, while Aloysius Agu remains the Goalkeepers’ Trainer.”

The NFF added: “We acknowledge and appreciate the interest that Mr Jose Peseiro has shown in Nigeria football during our very cordial discussions and have absolutely no doubt about his capacity. We believe that perhaps, in the future, there could be an opportunity to work with him.

“However, in view of the positive performance of the Super Eagles at the just-concluded Africa Cup of Nations, which has given hope to Nigerians and boosted our confidence in the present coaching crew to qualify us for the World Cup in Qatar, we have decided to accept the recommendation of the Technical and Development Committee to retain the Eguavoen-led coaching crew and strengthen it with the addition of Emmanuel Amuneke.”
