President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Ibrahim Gusau, has set up a three-man panel of advisers for national teams’ preparations.
Seasoned football administrator and Chairman of Katsina State Football Association, Aminu Balele Kurfi; sports marketing guru, Bukola Olopade; and Abba Mukhtar are the three members of the panel.
The major task of the “three wise men” will be to advice the NFF on preparations of age-grade national teams for upcoming international competitions.
The panel will be inaugurated by Gusau at the NFF secretariat in Abuja on Thursday.
The country’s U-17 and U-20 teams will take part in continental competitions next year
