I don’t want to be a coach – Yakubu Aiyegbeni

Former Super Eagles striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, has ruled out coaching, and would prefer to venture into other fields.

Speaking with Goal, the former Portsmouth, Middlesbrough and Leicester City striker says he enjoys his role as a FIFA ambassador, adding that he prefers it to coaching.

“I don’t want to be a coach,” Yakubu said.

“I went to the U-20 (Flying Eagles) camp in Munich before they went to Poland. There, I stayed for over a week and passed my message to the young footballers.

“I even coached the strikers a little bit and I am always ready to help out when I’m needed but coaching is not for me. (Text and photo courtesy Punch)
