The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has officially announced Éric Chelle as the new Head Coach of the Super Eagles .
Chelle, a talented Malian tactician known for his strategic insights, has signed a contract that places him at the helm of Nigeria’s senior men’s national team. His primary goal? To lead the Super Eagles in their quest to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and restore the team’s status on the international stage.
Before turning his attention to World Cup qualification, Chelle will first guide the Home-based Super Eagles in the upcoming African Nations Championship (CHAN) later this month. This tournament will be his initial test, allowing fans to see his tactical style and how he plans to strengthen the team.
Chelle comes with a strong background, having taken Mali to the quarterfinals of the AFCON 2023 tournament. He will also be bringing along three assistant coaches who have been with him throughout his career. This continuity could provide a significant advantage for the Super Eagles as they enter this new chapter.
With Éric Chelle now leading the team, expectations are soaring, and Nigerian football enthusiasts are eager to witness his impact on the Super Eagles. Can he guide Nigeria back to the World Cup? Will he nurture a new generation of homegrown talent? Only time will reveal the answers, but one thing is clear—exciting times are ahead for Nigerian football!
