Kwara Utd get new technical adviser
Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side, Kwara United FC of Ilorin, have unveiled Azeez Mohammed as their new technical adviser.
After erstwhile handler Abdullahi Biffo left the club, the Ilorin-based NPFL side settled for the little-known gaffer.
After Biffo departed from the team, coach Lukman Ijaiya, who was drafted from the junior to the main team, guided the club to a fourth-place finish.
Mohammed was unveiled on Wednesday in Ilorin in a low-key ceremony at the club’s secretariat, inside the Kwara Stadium Complex, Ilorin.
The club was listed as the second representative for the country in the Confederation of Africa Football (CAF) Confederation Cup competition.
Rivers United FC and Plateau United FC will play in the CAF Champions League. Remo Stars, which ended in the third position on the final league table and fourth placed Kwara United, will play in the CAF Confederation Cup.
Mohammed’s first official game in charge of Kwara United will be the CAF Confederations Cup preliminary round fixture against AS Douanes of the Niger Republic.
The first leg and the reverse fixture will be played in September.
