Remo Stars’ head coach, Daniel Ogunmodede, has stepped into the spotlight, eagerly embracing his new role as an assistant coach for the Super Eagles as they gear up for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
This exciting appointment is a key part of interim manager Augustine Eguavoen’s bold strategy to reshape the Super Eagles’ coaching team, Footballrover reports.
And joining Ogunmodede in this revamped lineup is none other than Fidelis Ilechukwu of Enugu Rangers, making for a formidable duo.

The NPFL top coaches will now channel their expertise into propelling the national team to new heights.
Their appointment couldn’t come at a more critical time, with the Super Eagles preparing to face the Cheetahs of Benin Republic and the Amavubi of Rwanda in matches that could shape their path to AFCON glory.
In a spirited message shared on his X page, Ogunmodede didn’t hold back his joy:
“With great joy, I’m honored to accept the call to serve as one of the assistant coaches for our beloved National Team, the Super Eagles, in the upcoming AFCON qualifiers against Benin Republic and Rwanda.”
Ogunmodede expressed his profound gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to the national team, describing it as a significant privilege.
His excitement was visible as he wrote more of joining the rest of the technical crew to tackle the challenges ahead.
He stressed the importance of unity and collaboration during this crucial moment in the National Team’s journey and thanked supporters for their encouragement.
Ogunmodede signed off with an optimistic note, confident that together they could achieve extraordinary success.
The duo will now prepare for the Super Eagles’ first clash against the Cheetahs of Benin Republic, scheduled for Saturday, September 7, 2024, at 5:00 PM Nigerian time at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo.
Shortly after, the team will fly to Kigali, Rwanda, where they’ll lock horns with the Amavubi at the Amahoro Stadium on Tuesday, September 10, 2024, at 2:00 PM Nigerian time.
