Coach Taiye Yusuf keen on Yobe Stars stay despite demotion

Head coach Taiye Yusuf his willing to remain in charge of Yobe Desert Stars even though they have already been relegated from the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL),

Yusuf was Ngozi Elechi's before he was sacked earlier this season, and was given the job as the former Go Round coach's successor with the caveat that Yobe Stars must remain in the Nigerian top-flight at the end of the season.

“We must start the rebuilding process now because we know that we have already been relegated,” Yusuf told Goal.

“We must commence what must be done to ensure that we return to the premier league at the end of next season.
