Former Nigeria coach Oliseh makes U-turn about potential return

The 46-year-old spent less than a year as the coach of the three-time African champions before he resigned in February 2016

Former Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh said he will consider a return to help Nigerian football if he is approached for a second stint.

The former Ajax and Borussia Dortmund midfielder played for the West African country between 1993 and 2002 before he was appointed the national team coach in July 2015.

Oliseh’s reign did not last long as he tendered his resignation to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) seven months later due to a breach of contract.
