NFF technical director Augustine Eguavoen has been forced back from a private visit to Belgium to lead the Super Eagles for 2025 AFCON qualifiers against Benin and Rwanda after contract talks with Bruno Labbadia broke down.
An official statement announced the appointment of Eguavoen for the matches against Benin Republic (Uyo, 7th September) and Rwanda (Kigali, 10th September).
It will be Eguavoen’s fourth stint in charge of the three-time African champions after earlier experience in 2005-2007, 2010 and 2022.
