Good news! Malam Abubakar Abubakar, also known as Yellow, is now the new coordinator for the Flying Eagles, a popular Nigerian soccer team.
Gombe United Football Club shared this exciting news on their social media pages.
The Flying Eagles are training hard for an important event called the WAFU B U-20 Championship. This big soccer game will happen in Abuja, a city in Nigeria.
The team had two practice matches: They won their first game 1-0 against Water FC from Abuja but lost their second game 1-0 to another team named Marlintarki.
The WAFU Championship is super important. It helps to decide which team will get to play in the 2025 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations, a huge soccer tournament.
Recently, the Nigeria Football Federation chose Aliyu Zubairu as the new head coach for the Flying Eagles. Fun fact: Abubakar and Zubairu already know each other well because they both worked at Gombe United in 2023.
