Minister of Youths and Sports, Mr. Sunday Dare, on Wednesday, charged the new Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro, to rebuild a strong and formidable senior national team for Nigeria.
Dare gave this charge on Wednesday when the Nigerian Football Federation presented Peseiro to him.
He said, “For us as a ministry and the NFF, the message we want to pass emphatically to the new coach is that this is the start of the rebuilding process. Nigeria is a football-loving nation, they love the Super Eagles and they love to win every game, even though its impossible. Let there be consistency and discipline in our team, on and off pitch, as it is a critical criteria for success”.
Peseiro responded saying he had only one goal for the Super Eagles.
“I want to win the next AFCON for my fantastic players and for Nigerians. I’m confident because I believe in this team, I believe in the quality and the number of good players,” Peseiro responded.
