Salisu Yusuf, the former assistant coach of the Super Eagles, has been appointed as the advisor to the technical crew of Rivers United, a Nigeria Premier Football League side, in a recent announcement.
The 61-year-old tactician, known for his wealth of experience, will collaborate with the head coach of Rivers United, Stanley Eguma, and other members of the technical crew to enhance the team’s performance.
With an extensive managerial background in the Nigerian Premier Football League, Yusuf has previously worked with reputable clubs such as Nasarawa United, Kano Pillars, Enyimba, and Rangers. During his tenure, he notably guided Kano Pillars to a triumphant NPFL title in 2018 and secured the Nigeria Federation Cup with Enyimba in 2013.
Rivers United, currently positioned at 12th place, seeks a resurgence under the guidance of Yusuf, aiming to overturn their challenges and elevate their standing in the NPFL this season.
