Finidi George has resigned from his position as the Head Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
Saturday Telegraph gathered that Finidi took the decision days after the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), announced moves to bring in a foreign technical adviser.
His exit was confirmed by former Eagles media officer, Toyin Ibitoye, on his X account.

Finidi was only appointed on April 29, 2024, to replace Jose Peseiro, whose contract expired in February.
During his very brief tenure, the former Enyimba boss oversaw a 1-1 draw with South Africa and a 2-1 defeat to Benin Republic, both in the 2026 World Cup qualifying series.
