Eguma Targets NPFL Title Or Continental Ticket With Enyimba

 

Precious Oham

Stanley Eguma has set his sights on winning the Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, or securing a continental ticket at the end of the 2025/2026 football season, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Enyimba FC head coach stated this as his side continues their pre-season programme ahead of their opening day clash at the home of newcomers, Barau FC.

However, Eguma, who won two league titles with his former side, Rivers United, understands the need to improve this term in an ambitious side like Enyimba.

 “Enyimba as a team have a target, and as a coach, an ambitious one at that, I equally have a target,” he stated.

 “And my target should be to win the league or pick a continental ticket, at worst.

“Having achieved that in the past, I think I should be looking at something that will surpass my achievement. And that is what the club is looking to achieve as well. Remember, we’re nine-time champions of the NPFL and two-time African champions. I think anything short of that would not be a good achievement.

"So, the club are also looking to surpass their previous performance. Of course, we have to achieve that collectively. That’s the target that I have.

“Before the management sets a target for me, I’ve already set one for myself, because I’m very ambitious, and I feel I have a lot to offer.”

Last season, he led the record nine-time league winners to a modest sixth-place finish in the NPFL, having joined in December when the team was in 11th position.

 In addition to winning two league titles with Rivers United in the past, the experienced gaffer also won the Federation Cup with the Port Harcourt side in 2001 when they were known as Dolphins.

Eguma was Okey Emordi’s assistant when Enyimba retained the CAF Champions League back in 2004.
