Former Super Eagles coach Adegboye Onigbinde has described Emmanuel Amuneke’s appointment as head coach of Sudanese first division club, Al Khartoum Watani, as a big achievement for Nigerian coaches.
Amuneke was unveiled as Al Khartoum Watani’s new coach ahead of the new season after signing a two-year deal at the club.
The 1994 Africa Footballer of the Year, replaces Kwesi Appiah who took over as Black Stars of Ghana head coach.
Commenting on Amuneke’s appointment, Onigbinde who worked as technical consultant to Trinidad and Tobago Football Association from 1998 to 2001 said the onus is now on the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations winner to prove his worth.
“And I see it as a sought of glory to Nigerian football. What is going to happen over there will depend on the type of contract he signed and how he goes about it.
“I hope he will have it in mind that he is not working for himself alone, he is representing the image of Nigeria. Let’s hope he achieves great results there.”
