Sarma said as much in his Monday celebratory address in Gombe, predicting success for the nation’s football growth with his appointment. He was optimistic that the Super Eagles will reach new heights under George’s direction.
Sarma said that the players will be motivated to excel on the field by his commitment, enthusiasm, and knowledge.
“We extend our warmest congratulations to Finidi George on his unveiling as the Head Coach of the Super Eagles. George’s career as a player and coach undoubtedly makes him a good choice for this role,” he said.
The FA chairman commended the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) for their decision to appoint the ex-Nigerian international. On behalf of the entire football community in Gombe State, I extend our heartfelt wishes for a successful tenure as George embarks on this journey.
