The Super Falcons could head into the Women's World Cup next year with a new gaffer as Super Falcons coach, Randy Waldrum could be sacked by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) following the team's lukewarm performance at the African Women Nations Cup in Morocco.

Nine-time African champions, Nigeria, finished fourth at the tournament under the guidance of the American.

The coach will only escape being replaced if the NFF Technical and Development Sub-Committee after evaluation are convinced that his technical abilities can take Nigeria far at the FIFA Women World Cup next year as stated in a communique released after NFF 77th Annual General Assembly in Lagos on Thursday.

"Following a detailed presentation by the Head of Delegation of Nigeria team to the 12th Women Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, Ms. Aisha Falode, the Executive Committee directed its Technical and Development Sub-Committee to hold a meeting and make recommendations on the way forward for the Senior Women National Team, Super Falcons, including but not limited to a thorough evaluation of the capability of the coaching crew to lead the team to a creditable performance at the FIFA World Cup finals in Australia and New Zealand next year."
