Following Nigeria’s inability to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, interim coach Austin Eguavoen has allegedly resigned from his role.
According to Anaedoonline.ng, Eguavoen submitted his resignation letter on Thursday, March 31, 2022.
According to Brilla Fm, the former Sunshine Stars coach would continue as the Nigeria Football Federation’s Technical Director (NFF).

The strategist has sent his official resignation letter to the football federation, according to the radio station, although the NFF has not issued an official declaration.
Remember that two days before the first leg of the World Cup play-off against Ghana in Kumasi, the NFF granted Eguavoen a two-year deal.
The Black Stars of Ghana secured a ticket to the World Cup and stopped Nigeria’s dream of becoming the first African country to qualify for four consecutive World Cups.
Meanwhile, the NFF has tendered an unreserved apology to the Federal Government and the people of Nigeria for the failure of the Super Eagles to qualify for this year’s FIFA World Cup finals holding in Qatar.
