Augustine Eguavoen has resigned as the Super Eagles coach following Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The 56-year-old was appointed on an interim basis in December 2021 but failed to guide Nigeria to the World Cup after the Super Eagles played a 1-1 draw against Ghana.

It is gathered Eguavoen has sent an official resignation letter to the Nigeria Football Federation and is expected to return to his Technical Director position with the NFF.

The former Nigeria U17 coach was in charge of the Super Eagles as they had a disappointing Africa Cup of Nations where they were knocked out in the round-of-16 by Tunisia.
