Augustine Eguavoen, the Technical Director of the Nigeria Football Federation, has denied reports that he has stepped down as the interim coach of the Super Eagles.

Eguavoen was appointed to lead the team for two games against Benin Republic and Rwanda in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers.

After the goalless draw against Rwanda, rumors spread that he had stepped down, but Eguavoen has clarified that he only mentioned discussing the next steps with the NFF hierarchy.

He emphasized that he is still in charge and will continue to lead the team

Finidi George, the former Super Eagles head coach, revealed that Victor Osimhen has not apologized for his social media outburst, despite George’s efforts to resolve the issue amicably.

Osimhen’s rant was in response to George’s claims that he could have played in the World Cup qualifiers, despite his reported injury.

However, it’s worth noting that there are reports that Osimhen has apologized to George, according to his former teammate, John Ogu.

Former France midfielder, Zinedine Zidane, has admitted it is unlikely he will coach Manchester United, stating his reluctance to work in England is a key factor.

Zidane has not coached any team since he left Real Madrid for the second time in 2021.

However, the 52-year-old has been consistently linked with top teams like United, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

Zidane has now revealed he is reluctant to join the Premier League club because of the language barrier.

In an interview with L’Equipe, Zidane said: “Would I want to go to Manchester [United]? I understand English, but I’m not completely fluent in it.

“I know that there are coaches who go to clubs without speaking the language, but I work in a different way.

He added: “Many elements come into play in order to win, it is a global context. I know what I need to win.”
