Jay Jay Okocha understands the need for a foreign coach for the Super Eagles > He talks about the possibility of managing a club side or a national team Former Super Eagles captain Austin Okocha has said that he is wary of the fact that the national team coaching job is vacant but he thinks the right person should be given the job. In an exclusive chat with
NAIJ.com Sports, the chairman of the Delta state Football Association said that he is enjoying freedom as an administrator rather than the restrictive coaching job.
“For now I think I’m enjoying my freedom, you can’t say never. I’m not thinking towards that direction,” he said. The former Bolton Wanderers midfielder also revealed that he has no qualification to become the new Super Eagles handler but he might go into management in the future. “I don’t think I have any qualification, I don’t want to be tempted to go into management,” he added. Jay Jay Okocha was a delight to watch in the recent Joseph Yobo testimonial match played in Port Harcourt and many Nigerians still believe he hung his boots too soon. However, the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) has urged all those interested to jostle for the Super Eagles coaching job to submit their applications before Wednesday, July 6, deadline. This comes even as the country’s football federation says it will meet by Friday, July 8, to look through all applications and release a shortlist.
