Netizens react as Finidi George resigns as Super Eagles Coach

By Muminat Ajide

Former Ajax winger Finidi George has stepped down as coach of the Super Eagles, as announced by ex-Super Eagles media officer Toyin Ibitoye on Saturday, June 15.

“News just in. Finidi George #FinidiGeorge_FG has resigned from his #NGSuperEagles manager position.”

The resignation came after the Nigeria Football Federation’s (NFF) decision to appoint a foreign coach above him, despite his recent appointment in May.

@AremuOpeye85 commented, “It’s not surprising. Pressure has overwhelmed him, given the circumstances.”

@Mayokun added, “Good. He doesn’t have the credentials to command respect from the players.”

@kfra 88 remarked, “What do you expect? He’s seen as a very local coach:
1. He has no track record of coaching U17 to success.
2. He has no track record of coaching the Local Eagles to success.
3. Jumping straight to coaching a professional Super Eagles team after two promotions is a significant leap.”
