Continue To Support Super Eagles, Peseiro Tells Nigerians

Jose Peseiro has urged Nigerians not to relent in their support for the Super Eagles despite a heart-wrenching defeat to hosts Côte d’Ivoire at the AFCON 2023 in January.

Peseiro announced his decision to step down as coach of Nigeria early last month.

The 63-year-old Portuguese coach met the target of guiding the Super Eagles to the semifinal of the tournament set for him by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) but opted to move on.

‘On Thursday, the Portuguese wrote a farewell message  to Nigerians on his X handle stating,  ‘I want to thank all Nigerians and the entire press for the interest, support, and encouragement given to the Super Eagles while I was their coach.”
