The technical department of the Nigeria Football Federation headed by Austin Eguavoen is expected to be in Enugu for the upcoming Nigeria National League Super 8, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Eight top teams from the second tier of the league will jostle for the 4 promotion slots in Enugu starting on the 7th of June to the 14th of the same month.

Apart from Eguavoen, Flying Eagles coach Ladan Bosso is expected to be at the venue to scout for players.

"NNL is very important. It is a Nigeria Football Federation critical project. We have such an important age bracket of players in the league that should serve to feed the national Under-20 and 23 teams.

“I can also say that the coach of the Flying Eagles, Ladan Bosso, should be in Enugu which provides the platform for him to scout for players. The eight coaches of the qualified teams and their technical crew must ensure they portray the best standards and quality at all times on and off the pitch.

"We expect the best of behaviours from the coaches and their crew to conform to global standards; the national and global focus will be on NNL and the conduct of the coaches will speak volumes for us. We, at NFF, too, will closely monitor the coaches. I am sure they are forward-looking. 

They should concern themselves more with producing the best teams and deploying the best tactics to excel", the statement said.
