Wandrum reacts after being named Super Falcons coach

Randy Wandrum has expressed his joy over his appointment as the head coach of Nigeria's senior women's national team on Monday.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) announced that Waldrum will be replacing erstwhile trainer Thomas Dennerby after beating over forty applicants to land the Super Falcons head coach role.

In 2017, the 64-year-old was handed the role but he eventually turned down the job for personal reasons before joining the University of Pittsburgh as women's head coach.
