Eguavoen quits Enyimba
Austin Eguavoen has quit Nigeria
Premier League side Enyimba, citing “personal reasons” for his decision.
The former Eagles captain and coach said that he is leaving
the club for personal reasons.
"I have put in my resignation from Enyimba," revealed
Eguavoen, who joined Enyimba early this season after he quit as coach of Nigeria
Olympic team following the team’s failure to qualify for the 2012 London
Olympics.
"I am leaving on personal grounds, but I will first
wait for the club chairman to return so that the team manager could forward the
letter of resignation to him.”
This was Eguavoen’s second spell at the two-time African
champions after he led them to win the 2009 Federation Cup.
On Monday, Enyimba, six-time winners of the league and twice
cup winners, were upset by lower league Prime FC in the quarterfinal of this
year’s Federation Cup.
Both players and officials were promptly placed on half
salary following their shock cup ouster.
‘The People’s Elephant’, as the Aba club are known by their
fans, are currently third on the NPL table with 52 points, six points behind
leaders Enugu Rangers with four rounds of matches to be played.
