Finidi George resigns as Nigeria coach after two games

Finidi George has left his job as coach of the Super Eagles after two games in charge of the team.

He won none of those games.

Finidi George’s departure comes after a 2-1 loss to Benin Republic in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, leaving the Super Eagles without a win in four games.

His exit was confirmed by former Eagles media officer, Toyin Ibitoye, on his X account on Saturday.

He wrote, “News just in. Finidi George #FinidiGeorge_FG has resigned from his #NGSuperEagles manager position.”
