President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, has admitted that a new coach has to be appointed for the Super Eagles quickly.
Pinnick was speaking to thenff.com, following the draws for the final phase of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Nigeria is drawn in a ‘Group of Death’, along with Zambia, Algeria and Cameroon.
Pinnick stated that preparations must begin immediately and “we must make good use of every single day”.
“It is a tough draw, but then I have always said that you have to beat the best to get to the World Cup,” Pinnick said.
“Now we have the draw, we know how to prepare. The preparation has to start right now and we must make good use of every single day leading to the kick-off of the series.
“The other pools are tough as well, because for me, you can never afford to underrate any team these days.
“Now we must quickly sort out the issue of head coach and his assistants and put every other thing in place in good time.”
