Nigeria Premier League champions Enyimba have announced the sacking of their head coach, George Finidi, just weeks after he led the team to a historic ninth NPL title.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Finidi, a former Nigeria international, was in charge of Enyimba for two seasons. He guided the team to the league title in his first season and the CAF Confederation Cup final in his second.
The club announced the dissolution of the technical crew on Monday in a statement signed by sporting director Ifeanyi Ekwueme.
The statement did not give a reason for Finidi’s sacking, but it said all the coaches had been directed to re-apply for their positions within 48 hours.
The Abia State Government recently appointed former Super Eagles captain Nwankwo Kanu as the new chairman of the club.
Kanu and Finidi were teammates during their playing days at Dutch club Ajax Amsterdam.
