Amuneke Undecided Over NFF Technical Director Job
Emmanuel Amuneke is shrewdly undecided over Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Technical Director job being linked to him, Orient Sports reports.
Reports have emerged that NFF is in talks with former Super Eagles winger, about the prospect of replacing Brutus Bewarang as Technical Director of the NFF.
Bewarang’s contract with NFF expired last June, forcing the football ruling body to commence search for a replacement.
Daniel Amokachi, also a former Nigeria international, was in line to get the job last month.
But following his appointment by the Federal Government as Special Assistant to President Buhari on Sports, NFF now turned their search light on Amuneke.
“NFF President Amaju Pinnick has been talking with him and hoping that he might accept the job to serve his country in higher capacity,” our source who requested anonymity divulged.
“Aside agreeing on the financial terms of the contract, Amuneke is stalling in accepting the job because he still nurses the ambition of coaching the Super Eagles one day.
“He was categorical that he is not done with coaching and that he hopes to return to the training pitch soon”.
The 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games gold medallist and AFCON 2004 winner, we gathered, is on $20,000 monthly salary at Misr Makassa.
