Former Super Eagles midfielder returns to coaching, bags new job in Germany

Former Super Eagles manager Sunday Oliseh will return to the dugout this summer after he bagged a new coaching job in Germany.

The former Bundesliga star, Oliseh has been named as the new manager of German club side SV Straelen.

He will put pen to paper on a one-year contract that will see him manage the club until the summer of 2023.

"Sunday Oliseh will be our new coach. In the last 24 hours, we were also able to agree on an employment contract until 30 June 2023," the club said in a statement as per SZ.

"He's not an offensive midfielder, I'll play Ndidi over him" - Is Sunday Oliseh right about Mikel Obi?

"We are looking forward to working together," Straelen's President Hermann Tecklenburg added.

Oliseh last managed the Dutch side, Fortuna Sittard, where he played a decisive role in their promotion to the Eredivisie in the 2017/2018 season.

However, three years after he was suspended and subsequently left the Dutch side, the 47-year-old is back in the dugout and will be looking to impress his new club as he relaunches his coaching career.

His first match in charge of Straelen will see him take on second division club FC St, Pauli in the main round of the DFB Cup on July 30.
