May 23, (THEWILL) – Enyimba Football Club, one of Nigeria’s most successful clubs, has announced the appointment of Yemi Olanrewaju, as their new head coach. This move comes after the departure of former coach, Finidi George, who recently accepted a role with the Nigerian national team.
Olanrewaju, who previously served as an assistant coach under George, has now been promoted to lead the team. The young tactician has been an integral part of the coaching staff, demonstrating his commitment, expertise, and leadership qualities throughout his tenure. He is currently pursuing his UEFA B licence, another demonstration of his dedication to furthering his coaching education and bringing the latest techniques and strategies to Enyimba FC.
The club expressed confidence in Olanrewaju’s abilities to lead the team to further success and achieve their goals. “Coach Yemi Daniel will see out the remainder of the season, ensuring stability and continuity for Enyimba FC as they continue to compete,” read a statement on the club’s official website. His passion for the game and his continuous pursuit of excellence make him the ideal candidate to lead the team forward during this transition period.
Olanrewaju’s coaching experience extends beyond Enyimba, as he previously worked as an assistant coach with the now-defunct MFM club and Nigeria’s U-17 side, the Golden Eaglets. This diverse background has equipped him with a wealth of knowledge and expertise, making him well-prepared to take on this new role.
As Enyimba look to the future, the appointment of Olanrewaju as the new head coach signals their commitment to maintaining their winning tradition while embracing a fresh perspective and innovative approaches to the game.
