Ex-Manchester United Coach Eyes Super Eagles Job

English coach Jonathan Hill has shown interest in taking over as the next head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles, as the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) continues its search for a permanent manager.

The 54-year-old Hill has accumulated significant experience as an assistant manager and youth coach at top English clubs, including Manchester United and Fulham. Despite his extensive coaching background, his only experience as a senior head coach was with Tromsdalen in Norway, where he led the team in 40 matches.

With the Super Eagles undergoing frequent managerial changes in recent years, the NFF is looking for a stable, long-term solution to guide the team. Hill’s expertise in youth development and his tenure at prominent clubs could make him an appealing candidate for the role.

Speaking about the opportunity, Hill expressed enthusiasm about the prospect of managing one of Africa’s most successful national teams. With a rich football history, the Super Eagles are eager to return to their former glory, and Hill believes he could be the right fit to help them achieve that. While the NFF has not yet made a final decision, Hill’s candidacy adds another intriguing name to the list of potential coaches.
