Super Eagles interim coach Salisu Yusuf has disclosed that he plans to return overseas to understudy new Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola when the new English Premier League season.
Yusuf was recently at Scottish club Hearts to understudy their workings. “I hope to understudy Pep (Guardiola) by the time he resumes at Manchester City.
I was scheduled to do that when I finished at Hearts in Scotland, but I shifted it because I wanted to attend the CAF A license in Abuja,” the coach said.
“My visit to Scotland was eye-opening and it showed to me again why cubs in Europe are very prepared because they have experts for all aspects of their preparations – from fitness conditioning to dieting.” Guardiola will replace Manuel Pellegrini at
The Etihad for the new season when Yusuf then hopes to visit. Former Kano Pillars and Enyimba coach Yusuf, who has assisted Stephen Keshi, Sunday Oliseh and Samson Siasia, will lead Nigeria for two friendlies against Mali and Luxembourg in the new month.
