Enyimba in talks with Super Eagles assistant Salisu Yusuf to take over coaching role
Nigeria champions Enyimba have begun discussions to re-engage Eagles assistant coach Salisu Yusuf ahead of next year’s CAF Champions League, according to reports.
In November, Kadiri Ikhana led Enyimba to claim a seventh Nigeria league title but the highly experienced coach may not be the man to lead them into next year’s CAF Champions League.
Enyimba are now targeting Salisu Yusuf, who made a huge impression when he was in charge of the Aba club two years ago.
However, discussions between Enyimba and the Eagles coach have stalled after Salisu insisted he first be paid the over four million Naira they owe him when he first worked at the club.
Enyimba will also have to find a way round to how they could have the services of the Zaria-born tactician as he is contracted to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) as an assistant coach to Sunday Oliseh.
The coach, who has also handled Kano Pillars and El Kanemi Warriors, himself has refused to comment on the renewed interest of his former employers.
