Nigeria Will Miss World Cup Again Without Nigerian Coach, Okpala Warns'

Nigeria's Super Eagles are likely to miss another World Cup without a native coach at the helm, according to former assistant coach Sylvanus Okpala.

The Nigerian national team is likely to miss another World Cup without having a homegrown coach at the helm, as former assistant coach Sylvanus Okpala has expressed concerns about the federation's reliance on foreign coaches for international competitions. Okpala believes that appointing local coaches would significantly improve Nigeria's chances of qualification. The Super Eagles have struggled in recent years to achieve consistent success under foreign coaching stewardship.
