According to Africanfootball, an official of the Nigeria Football Federation has revealed the late moves by Austin Jay Jay Okocha to become the Assistant Coach to the soon to be unveiled Sunday Oliseh.
The source said Okocha reached out to some top officials to propose himself as assistant coach to Oliseh.
“But two things are working against him; first, he does not have any coaching papers and secondly, he and Oliseh do not see eye-to-eye since ‘Jay Jay’ replaced Oliseh as Eagles skipper to the 2002 World Cup.
“Many still believe Okocha stabbed Oliseh in the back by doing so and that Oliseh has not forgotten or forgiven", the source said.
There is a possibility of Okocha's appointment due to his influential position as the chairman of Delta Football Association, as well as the chairman of the NFF Study Group.
