Dosu Joseph, a former Super Eagles Goalkeeper, on Monday supported John Obuh's decision to hire a foreign assistant coach for the Flying Eagles, in the buildup to the U-20 World Cup in Turkey.
.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Obuh had recently engaged the services of a German coach, Jurgen Press, a former FC Bayern Munich youth coach.
.
Dosu told NAN in Lagos that Obuh's decision to hire a foreigner was a good step, adding that his recent coaching course in Germany might have influenced the decision.
.
He added that Germans were technically and tactically gifted in their understanding of the game, and could play a crucial role in the team's outing.
.
"I believe it's a good step in the right direction. The most important thing is for the team to perform well in Turkey.
.
"Obuh recently went for a course in Germany and understands clearly what he passed through, and I believe that might have influenced his decision.
.
"More so, we all know the Germans to be tactical in their understanding of the game and I'm sure the man can make meaningful contributions to the team," he added.
.
Dosu, who was a member of the victorious gold winning U-23 squad at the Atlanta '96 Olympic Games, noted that the German was only there to help the team and nothing else.
