Eric Chelle has opened up on his Super Eagles appointment, saying it is an opportunity he could not miss because they are the best team in Africa.
The former Mali coach ended his time with Algerian club MC Oran on a winning note as they beat US Biskra 1-0 at home.
“This was my last game in charge of MC Oran,” Chelle said.
“I worked with enthusiasm and of course the pressure.
“I will miss the fans, so also the critics.
“I have officially joined Nigeria who are without doubt the best team in Africa.
“This is huge opportunity I could not refuse, I grab it with both hands.”
The 47-year-old coach is expected in Abuja Sunday accompanied by his three assistants.
He is to be presented to the public Monday.
