Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi has said, nobody can appoint his assistant coaches for him insisting that he will choose his assistant coaches at the appropriate time. Coach Stephen Keshi said, the NFF cannot decide for him, who his assistant coaches will be.
Keshi speaking through his manager and brother, Emmanuel Addo, said, in a bid to do things differently, he is still making consultation with relevant stakeholders including the NFF President and the Chairman of the Technical Committee, Anyansi-Agwu and even members of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria.
“On the issue of assistant coaches for the Super Eagles, Keshi wants to make it clear that he is the one who will decide who his assistant coaches will be. Because it is a fresh start and he wants to do things differently, he is consulting with the NFF President and the Chairman of the Technical Committee, Anyansi-Agwu and even members of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria.
“Keshi is asking questions from all stakeholders because he wants to make the team great again. It is not the NFF that will decide who his assistant coaches will be because they are under him and are going to work with him and nobody will force anybody on him”, said Keshi’s manager.
On the factors that will determine his choice, Addo said “Keshi said he wants assistant coaches who will tell him the truth and not play eye service and coaches who will work in harmony with him”.
Keshi said, he wants assistant coaches who will be trustworthy and be united with him who he will name before the 2017 AFCON qualifying match with Chad.
