Thank God at long last the NFF has released the coaches for the various Age-group teams. However, Nigeria should take note that the appointment is coming a bit late. E.g. the Golden Eaglets will be starting their campaign on the 17th October 2020 which is less than 22days to the Zonal qualifier in Benin Republic. If the Eaglets fail to qualify, we Nigeria should know whom to blame. (i.e. The NFF). Ghana one of the opponents, has stated preparation since 15th of September 2020 and the appointment of U17 coaches took place since July, 2020. (Check Ghanasoccernet.com).
Is the camp for U17 open?
