President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Ibrahim Gusau, asserts that the federation will later this year organise CAF license C and B coaching courses for men’s football coaches in the country, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

This is coming on the heels of the CAF license C course exclusively organised for women, which began in Abuja on Monday.

The last time a CAF license course took place in Nigeria was in 2017, when about 80 coaches took part in a two-week C license course in Abuja.

As the women’s course marks the return of CAF courses to Nigeria, Gusau said two more courses for men will follow before the end of the year.

Before the end of the year, also, CAF C licenses and CAF B licenses for men will commence,” Gusau said in Osogbo during a visit to Osun State last weekend.

“So, we’re doing everything possible to bring all these courses together. We want to start with the women because it has never happened with the female football coaches.”

During the opening ceremony of the first-ever women’s course on Monday, the NFF president pledged more support for the growth of women’s coaches in the country.
