Former African Footballer of the Year, Emmanuel Amuneke, is being considered to coach Nigeria Under-17 team, the Golden Eaglets.
Top officials of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have specially told MTNFootball.com that Amuneke or former international defender Nduka Ugbade has been proposed to assist the head coach of the Eaglets.
"The job of assistant coach for the Under-17 team is between Amuneke and Ugbade. The NFF technical committee have narrowed the job to the two former internationals," a top official disclosed.
Former Barcelona winger Amuneke has for several years sponsored a youth club in Lagos, while Ugbade, who made history when he led Nigeria to win the inaugural Under-17 World Cup in 1985 in China, is working with an academy, also in Lagos.
Amuneke has bagged his coaching badges in Spain and has already worked as coach at former club Julius Berger as well as Ocean Boys in the Nigeria Premier League (NPL).
MTNFootball.com further learnt that a more experienced coach will head the country's schoolboys, who have failed to qualify for the African Junior Championship since 2007.
NFF president Aminu Maigari has already hinted that all arrangements for a new Under_17 team have been concluded and a formal announcement as regards the new coaches as well as the date to kick off a nation_wide screening will soon follow.

Poster, why no always be specific in ur postings. It says an assistant coach and not a head coach as u posited. Tanx for the information but ur postings sometimes seems misleading untill someone reads it and gets the whole gist. Let Amuneke be given the job, he did more than Ugbade Nduka in the internal soccer.
