According to a report, an official of the Nigeria Football Federation has revealed that Portuguese tactician Antonio Canceicao is currently the favourite to emerge as the new manager of the Super Eagles of Nigeria. The same source reports that Antonio Canceicao has met the requirements for the position of the Nigerian head coach.
