Former Kwara United coach, Samson Unuanel believes the appointment of Finidi George as the Super Eagles head coach will help the development of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

Finidi, who will take over from Jose Peseiro after leading Nigeria to the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where the team lost 2-1 to Ivory Coast, will be saddled with the responsibility of qualifying the Super Eagles to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Reacting to his appointment, Unuanel told Completesports.com that Finidi has done enough to merit the job.

He also revealed that the former Ajax star will look towards picking some best talents in the NPFL.

“I want to congratulate Finidi George for his appointment as Super Eagles job.

“He has done enough to merit the position going by what he has done with Enyimba and the experience garnered as an assistant under Jose Peseiro.”

“I believe his appointment will have direct impact on the NPFL players because for some time now the local based players have not been giving enough opportunity to prove their worth in the Super Eagles.”
