Finidi George has resigned from his position as the head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles team.
Finidi reportedly took the decision on Saturday, a few days after the Nigeria Football Federation, announced plans to bring in a foreign technical adviser.
Finidi’s exit was confirmed by former Eagles media officer, Toyin Ibitoye, on his X account.
Ibitoye wrote, “News just in: Finidi George @FinidiGeorge_FG has resigned from his @NGSuperEagles manager position.”
George was only appointed on April 29, 2024, to replace Jose Peseiro, whose contract expired in February.
During his very brief tenure, George who is the former Enyimba boss, oversaw a 1-1 draw with South Africa and a 2-1 defeat to Benin Republic, both in the 2026 World Cup qualifying series.
