Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that Sunday Oliseh, Nigerian football legend, vowed never to return as Nigeria's Super Eagles coach.

The 45-year-old only lasted about eight months in charge of the country's national team before falling apart with his employers.

His team scored 19 goals and conceded just six while losing two games in the process. He also qualified the country for CHAN Championship the same year but crashed out at the group stage.
