Odigie, who formerly worked as the Assistant Coach for Nigeria’s U-17 national team, the Golden Eaglets, at the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup held in Nigeria, is thought to be one of the leading candidates for the role left open by Ladan Bosso. Bosso has recently become a part of Barau FC of Kano, which has just been promoted. Odigie and Dombraye are in the running to take over Bosso’s position. Eddy Lord Dombraye, a previous left-sided midfielder for the Flying Eagles, is rumored to be a candidate to take over from Bosso at Bayelsa United. Dombraye, who previously coached Lobi Stars, is considered a strong rival for the managerial position at the Yenagoa club. Currently, Monday Odigie is also a leading contender. “I wouldn’t be shocked if he ends up getting it eventually,” a dependable source from the club informed Completesports.
