Super Eagles: Labbadia Set to Name Foreign Assistants
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Bruno Labbadia, who has recently been appointed as the new head coach of Nigeria’s national football team, the Super Eagles, is preparing to announce his selection for foreign assistants. This decision comes after his official appointment, which was confirmed on Tuesday. Labbadia’s selection is eagerly anticipated by fans and football analysts alike, as it will help shape the future of the team.

Labbadia, a German football manager known for his extensive experience in European football, is expected to bring in two foreign assistants to support him. In addition to these foreign assistants, the rest of the coaching team will be comprised of local coaches who will be appointed by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF). This approach aims to blend international expertise with local knowledge, providing a comprehensive support system for the Super Eagles.

Among the potential candidates for Labbadia’s foreign assistants are Erdinç Sözer, Olaf Janßen, and Bernhard Trares. Sözer, who is 58 years old, is widely regarded as Labbadia’s most trusted aide. The two have a long history of working together at several prominent clubs, including Bayer Leverkusen, VfB Stuttgart, VfL Wolfsburg, and Hertha Berlin.

Sözer’s experience and familiarity with Labbadia’s coaching methods make him a strong contender for one of the assistant roles. Currently, Sözer is available for new opportunities after parting ways with Turkish club Samsunspor on June 30, 2024.

Another possible assistant is Bernhard Trares, a former center-back who has collaborated with Labbadia since 2015. Their partnership began at Hamburg and continued at VfB Stuttgart. Trares brings a solid defensive perspective to the coaching team. Like Sözer, Trares is currently without a club, which makes him available for the role.

Olaf Janßen, who is currently the manager of Viktoria Köln, is also in the running for an assistant position. However, Janßen’s current commitments to Viktoria Köln may affect his availability for the role with the Super Eagles. His managerial experience adds valuable insight, but the timing of his current responsibilities could be a factor in the decision-making process.

Labbadia’s choices will play a crucial role in shaping the Super Eagles’ strategy and performance in upcoming competitions. The combination of international expertise and local coaching insight is expected to enhance the team’s competitive edge. As the NFF finalizes the coaching staff, football enthusiasts are eager to see how Labbadia’s selections will impact the team’s future success.
