Ifeanyi Udeze has warned the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) not to impose assistants on Super Eagles head coach, Finidi George.
Finidi is reportedly not willing to work with his former Super Eagles teammates Emmanuel Amuneke and Daniel Amokachi, who are favoured for the assistant coach position.
Amuneke and Amokachi also applied for the head coach position.
There are reports that the former winger is already shopping for a foreign assistant.
Udeze posited that any move to impose an assistant on the new gaffer will be counter productive.
“I don’t want to see an ex-player who will come and give Finidi problems,” Udeze a member of Super Eagles squad to the 2002 FIFA World Cup in South Korea and Japan told Brila FM.
“The NFF must not give him assistants who will try to take the job from him.
“He should instead be given a free hand to bring his assistants.”
