Lobi Stars have appointed former Super Eagles assistant coach Daniel Amokachi as their new head coach, replacing Eugene Agagbe, Soccernet.ng reports. Agagbe’s dismissal comes after a poor run of form, with Lobi Stars securing just one win and sitting 17th in the table. The 51-year-old won the FA Cup and the FA Charity Shield with Everton in 1995 and lifted the Turkish Cup and Turkish Super Cup with Beşiktaş in 1998. His arrival sparks a reunion of 1994 Super Eagles teammates now coaching in the NPFL, joining Finidi George (Rivers United) and Emmanuel Amunike (Heartland). Lobi Stars hope that Amokachi’s leadership will turn their fortunes around as they aim to climb up the NPFL standings.
