Chukwueze has revealed which Super Eagles players would make the best coaches after they retire
AC Milan forward Samuel Chukwueze has revealed which of his current Uper Eagles teammates he believes could make their mark in the world of caching when they retire.
Chukwueze enjoys international break with Nigeria
Chukwueze starred for the Super Eagles of Nigeria against Sao Tome and Principe, coming off the bench to score the final goal of a 6-0 demolition, while also providing the assist for the fifth goal.
The AC Milan forward gave an interesting interview before the Sao Tome match to FansTribe on Youtube, in which he noted that some of his colleagues had started to show early signs of managerial greatness.
During the interview, Chukwueze answered questions about various aspects of his Super Eagles career, giving many interesting answers to different questions, but saved the most intriguing response for a question about his teammates.
Chukwueze predicts future Super Eagles coaches
Chukwueze was asked which of his teammates would make great coaches in future and the former Villarreal winger wasted little time before mentioning Leicester forward Kelechi Iheanacho and PAOK defender William Troost-Ekong.
Speaking to Football Fans' Tribe, Chukwueze said, "Kelechi Iheanacho [would make a good coach], as he always talks about football and tactics and then William Paul Troost-Ekong because he's a leader."
Iheanacho played under one of the great tactical minds of this generation, Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, so Chukwueze's are within reason, while Troost-Ekong's leadership abilities are plain to see after the Dutch-born defender was named captain during the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
