ENYIMBA NAME YUSUF HEAD COACH


Six-time Nigerian champions, Enyimba have appointed Salisu Yusuf as their head coach for the 2012/2013 season.
Enyimba announced on their official website on Sunday that Yusuf resumes with immediate effect at the Aba-based club.

The contract between Enyimba and Yusuf was signed in Aba on Saturday.
"I believe Salisu Yusuf is the right man to move the club to where we want to go.
"He has an outstanding reputation for his technical knowledge of the game and led Kano Pillars to their first league title (as an assistant under Kadiri Ikhana). He also worked well with the Samson Siasia led technical crew of the Super Eagles.

"Salisu shares our long-term ambitions and ethos of playing great football and winning trophies and I believe he will be able to do so now with all the support we will give him. Every member of Enyimba and the Government of Abia State will give him everything he needs to succeed.

"We are constantly trying to move Enyimba forward. It is important that we hire and work with people with great determination and spirit. This appointment is the first part of a process of putting the club firmly on the path to great success," CEO of Enyimba, Felix Anyansi-Agwu said to the club's website.

"I feel honoured to be a part of Enyimba. This is one of the most well known clubs in Africa and I'm hopeful that at the end, we can win a lot of trophies because when a club gets to the level where Enyimba is, only victory and success is acceptable," said the former Kano Pillars' coach.
