The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF), has confirmed that it will name a permanent coach for the Super Eagles in June, ahead of the final round of qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
The team has been without a substantive coach, since Sunday Oliseh resigned in February.
Samson Siasia was named interim coach immediately after then, but on Wednesday, the NFF announced its National Technical Director, Shuaibu Amodu, as the new interim coach of the Super Eagles.
He will lead a quartet of Salisu Ibrahim, Alloy Agu, Imama Amakapabo and Kennedy Boboye, for the two international friendly games against Mali and Luxembourg.
According to the NFF Technical Committee, a technical crew led by either a local or foreign coach would be appointed after the friendlies.
Nigeria take on Mali on May 27, before going on to face Luxembourg on June 1.
