PHIL COSTA: Nigeria have confirmed the permanent
appointment of caretaker coach Salisu Yusuf to the senior national team
but have been forced into an embarrassing backtrack over their
announcement of Frenchman Paul Le Guen as technical advisor.
The Nigeria Football
Federation (NFF) officially handed the position of head coach to Yusuf
at their executive committee meeting on Wednesday, the organisation
confirmed in a statement.
They have also asked
their technical and development committee to come up with a
recommendation for the post of technical advisor within seven days.
