Austin Eguavoen has stepped down as Super Eagles Head Coach following the disastrous failure of leading Nigeria to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The World Cup is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 21 November to 18 December 2022.
Brila FM, in breaking the news, said Eguavoen has sent an official resignation letter to the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF).
The Sports radio said Eguavoen will now return to his role as Technical Director of all national teams.
However, the Nigerian Football Federation, NFF is yet to release an official statement.
The NFF had handed a two-year contract to Eguavoen two days before the first leg of the World Cup play-off against Ghana.
It is now clear that the Super Eagles will soon have a new coach.
Meanwhile Nigerians are calling for a total overhaul of the football federation.
