Following the exit of Jose Peseiro after a successful AFCON, the Nigerian Football Federation named former Super Eagles legend and assistant coach Finidi George as new boss.
Finidi held the head coach role at Enyimba before this announcement, a position he has occupied for the past three years.
The former Real Betis winger was named Enyimba coach on June 11, 2021. He could only manage a seventh-place finish in the 2021-22 campaign; the following season, however, he led the Aba-based club to their ninth NPFL triumph.

Per multiple reports, including Brilla FM, the 53-year-old has said farewell to his players, and his assistant Olanrewaju Yemi will take over as interim head coach for what's left of the campaign.
Olanrewaju took to X to wish Finidi farewell with the following message: “Working with you for the past two years has been fun and inspiring… thank you for all you do boss. I wish you the very best with @NGSuperEagles.”
Enyimba have yet to officially announce his departure, but a statement is expected soon.
