In a bold move signaling their ambition for the future, Igbajo United has appointed former Nigerian International Sule Isa Eroje as their new Head Coach, following the resignation of Muyideen Omoniyi.

Eroje, a former Nigerian international, brings a wealth of experience both as a player and a coach. Representing Nigeria at the U-20 and U-23 levels, he showcased exceptional skills and tactical understanding, earning him a reputation as a footballing prodigy. His playing career spanned stints with renowned clubs such as Gombe United, Ranchers Bees, Plateau United, and Nasarawa United. Eroje also ventured into international football, leaving a mark in India and Indonesia, where he honed his skills further and broadened his footballing perspective.

As a coach, Eroje’s résumé is equally impressive. He has served in various capacities, including stints with Abia Warriors and Kada City, where he proved his mettle by developing young talents and achieving commendable results. He also served recently, as the technical adviser for Sokoto United and Ayema FC in the Benin Republic Premier League, where his tactical acumen and leadership qualities shone brightly.
Now, Eroje embarks on a new chapter with Igbajo United, a club determined to cement its place, with a form of stability in the NNL. Speaking, on Friday, the tactitian expressed his gratitude for the opportunity and outlined his vision for the team.

“I am honored to join Igbajo United,” Eroje said. “This is a club with passionate fans, and talented players. My goal is to build on the solid foundation laid by my predecessor and bring a new dimension to our game. Together, we will strive for excellence and ensure the club’s success both on and off the pitch.”
The appointment of Eroje has injected a fresh sense of enthusiasm into the Igbajo United camp. Fans alike are eager to see the changes he will bring, starting with their upcoming clash against Crown FC of Ogbomosho this weekend. The match, set to take place at the LanreLeke Sports Complex in Ile-Ogbo, is expected to test the team’s mettle under their new leader.
Club’ CEO, John Titilawo expressed the team’s readiness to embrace Eroje’s philosophy. “We are excited to work with Coach Eroje. His experience and knowledge will be invaluable to us as we aim to reach new heights. The team is motivated and ready to give their all in the coming matches.”
