According to the TalkTalk ,Nigeria Enyimba has confirmed Yemi Olanrewaju's appointment as their substantive head coach.

Olanrewaju took over the People's Elephant on an interim basis in May, after Finidi George left to lead the Super Eagles.

The youthful tactician turned down the opportunity to work alongside Finidi at Rivers United.

The former Golden Eaglets assistant coach signed a deal with Enyimba on Tuesday at the club's secretariat in Aba.

In 2022, the 32-year-old became Enyimba's assistant coach.

He was instrumental in the club's title victory in the 2022/23 season.
