CAFCC: NFF Offers To Assist Rangers With Technical Backing

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has offered to provide technical backing to CAF Confederation Cup representatives, Enugu Rangers, ahead of Sunday’s opening Group stage fixture against Egyptian opponents, Pyramids.

This development was necessitated after the entire Rangers coaching crew led by Benedict Ugwu, was sacked on Sunday following the team’s poor display that saw them lose against league debutants, Akwa Starlets by 2-0 at home.

 

The sack created a vacuum for a new coach to be appointed to guide the team in their continental engagements.

 

However, the decision of Rangers Management not to rush into employing a coach but to carry out a process that will get a good replacement made sure the NFF had to wade in to ensure the Enugu side is not short of any technical support to do well in the competition.

 

According to a source, “the NFF is fully out to help Rangers compete favourably in the continent”, that is why they have offered to provide the needed assistance by agreeing to draft one of Super Eagles assistant coaches to help Rangers in the interim before the club can find a substantive handler”.

 

Meanwhile, Rangers management met with Enugu Governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, at the state House of Monday to discuss ways of reviving the club’s fortunes.

 

An impeccable source say the meeting ended successfully with the governor reaffirming his unalloyed support for Rangers to continue to do well.

 

In addition, Pyramids of Egypt will be flying into the country of Thursday in a private aircraft ahead of their Sunday’s CAFCC group stage fixture against Enugu Rangers.

 

According to reports, the club’s trip which will see them landing in Port Harcourt before travelling to Enugu will have over 60 persons in its contingent.
