Barrister Chris Green, Nigeria Football Federation technical committee chairman, has disclosed that the Super Eagles will get a new coach this month.
Nigeria has been without a coach since the resignation of former coach, Sunday Oliseh, in February, following a disappointing CHAN outing in Rwanda in January.
The three-time African champions have an inconsequential AFCON qualifiers against Tanzania in September before kick starting their world cup qualifiers against Zambia in October.
"We are going to have a coach this month. There is no doubt about that."
"Definitely, that will be done plenty of weeks before our (2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying) match against Tanzania," Green told Nigeria Info FM.
The NFF chief then moved to allay fears that the Super Eagles have lost the fear factor associated with the side in recent years.
"This is a very bad time for any team to meet the Super Eagles."
"When our backs are against the wall, that is when you see the team fighting."
"Tomorrow, when the team starts doing well, people should not be surprised," he said.
