Eguavoen To Attend FIFA Technical Leadership Diploma Program In Germany

The second edition of the FIFA Technical Leadership Diploma, which seeks to become the “globally recognised qualification” for technical leaders working in the game, will get underway on 1 April 2024 in Germany.
Technical Director of the Nigeria Football Federation, Coach Augustine Eguavoen, will be one of the twenty-five global participants from member associations, the confederations and FIFA who will come together at the German Football Association’s national training centre for the first phase of the unique level 6 qualification.

The development of exceptional technical leaders will also assist us in delivering our long-term strategic aims of giving every talent a chance and growing the game at every level.”
