Super Eagles coach Rohr needs support to succeed - Utaka

Former Nigeria international John Utaka believes Gernot Rohr needs support to succeed as coach of the Super Eagles.

The German tactician was appointed as manager of the West Africans in 2016 and has made a meaningful contribution to the side since his arrival.

Rohr is set to sign a new contract with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) as his current deal with the governing body is set to expire next month.
