The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has officially unveiled Éric Sékou Chelle as the new Head Coach of the Super Eagles.
The Independent Mirror reports that the, event took place on Monday, at the Media Conference Room of the MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja.
The chairman of the Nigeria Sports Commission NSC Malam Shehu Dikko, NFF President, Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau, among others attended the ceremony.
Recall that, Chelle’s appointment was confirmed last Tuesday by the NFF Executive Committee, following a recommendation from its Technical and Development Committee.
Chelle’s first challenge will be leading the Super Eagles B at the upcoming African Nations Championship in East Africa next month.
After that, the focus will shift to the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with crucial matches against Rwanda (away) and Zimbabwe (home) in March.
He recently left his position at Algerian club MC Oran, where he had been managing the 1989 African Champions’ Cup finalists, to accept the Super Eagles job.
