NFF in Search of Permanent Coach for Super Falcons, Gusau Confirms



The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has confirmed that the search for a permanent coach for the Super Falcons is still ongoing. According to NFF President Ibrahim Gusau, the federation is working diligently to fill the vacant coaching position after the departure of former coach Randy Waldrum. The Super Falcons, one of Africa’s most successful women’s football teams, have been without a substantive coach since Waldrum's exit, and the search for a suitable replacement is a top priority for the NFF.

In the interim, Justin Magudu was appointed as the temporary head coach last week to lead the team until a permanent replacement is found. Speaking via NFF TV, Gusau reassured fans that the process to hire a new coach is already underway. He emphasized that the NFF is committed to securing a capable leader who will continue the development of the team and maintain their competitive edge on the international stage.

“We have started the process to get a substantive coach for the Super Falcons," Gusau said, noting that their focus is on selecting the best candidate for the role. He added that while the search continues, the team will not be left idle. The upcoming FIFA international window in October will be utilized to engage the team in competitive fixtures, helping them maintain their momentum.

The Super Falcons have a busy schedule ahead as they prepare for key international tournaments and qualification matches. Ensuring they have strong leadership is crucial to maintaining their status as one of Africa’s top women’s football teams. The NFF is focused on finding a coach who not only fits the technical requirements but also aligns with the long-term vision for the team’s success.

While the search for a permanent coach continues, fans are eager to see how the team will perform under interim coach Justin Magudu. The NFF’s decision will be closely watched as they work to ensure the Super Falcons remain a dominant force in global women’s football.
