Former Nigeria's Super Eagles winger Omatsone Aluko is still on cloud nine after he was appointed as the first team coach of Ipswich Town FC, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The newly promoted English Premier League club on Monday appointed former Nigeria International as the first team coach.

While reacting to the appointment, Aluko was elated about the development and promised to give his best.

“It is a real privilege to start the next phase of my career by joining the first-team coaching staff here at the club,” Sone told the club website.

“Learning from the Manager and all the coaching staff here is a fantastic opportunity for me. It is a great time to be at Ipswich, and I'm looking forward to helping the squad continue to learn and take on the challenge of the Premier League.”

Aluko who has 7 caps and 2 goals for Nigeria, played for the Blues between August 2021 and May 2024, announced his retirement from playing this summer.
