Exclusive : Slovenian Manager Throws Hat In The Ring To Coach Super Eagles

Allnigeriasoccer.com has been informed that Slovenian manager Ivo von Sajh-Scheich is among the candidates vying to coach the Super Eagles, ahead of the resumption of qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup.

In football parlance, Sajh-Scheich is now a free agent as he last handled Kano Pillars in 2009, helping the club qualify for the semifinals of the CAF Champions League.

If the Slovenian is given the job, he plans to engage the former President of Nigeria Football Federation Ibrahim Galadima and former Kano Pillars chairman Tukur Babangida as his advisers, while Baba Mohamed Ganaru will be his assistant.

The 61-year-old gaffer plans to appoint Samm Audu as his Media Officer and will bring in a goalkeeper trainer for the Super Eagles from Europe as he claims that no local can do the job.

Sajh-Scheich has coached teams in India, Slovenia, Libya, Russia and Nigeria, and played a key role in the development of Ahmed Musa while the striker was at Kano Pillars.
