Ex-Super Eagle’s Coach Sinclair Is Dead
Former Super Eagles coach, Monday Sinclair, has passed away at the age of 88 after a prolonged battle with diabetes.
The news of his death was confirmed by ex-Nigerian goalkeeper Peterside Idah in a Facebook post.
Sinclair reportedly died on Wednesday at about 3:15 p.m.
“Our daddy is gone. What a man. He signed me to play for Sharks. Gave me my first match against Niger Tornadoes of Minna,” Idah wrote.
He briefly took charge of the Nigerian national team in 1997, following the dismissal of Philippe Troussier, overseeing two friendly matches against Zambia and Tunisia.
Sinclair is widely recognized for discovering several notable Nigerian players, including Peter Rufai, Taribo West, Finidi George, and Idah Peterside, among others.
