A former Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, has been appointed to the International Football Association Board (IFAB), the governing body responsible for setting and updating football laws. 


Oliseh announced his appointment via his official X account, expressing excitement about contributing to IFAB's mission to shape the beautiful game for players and fans worldwide.


With this new role, Oliseh will work alongside influential figures like the legendary Arsenal manager, Arsène Wenger, who sits on IFAB's Football and Technical Advisory Panels. 


Notably, Wenger and Oliseh have previously collaborated within FIFA's technical study group, analyzing and shaping the game's future.


Oliseh's appointment marks a significant milestone in his post-playing career, which has seen him transition into coaching, punditry, and global football administration and his experience working with FIFA, including roles in technical study groups for major tournaments, will likely inform his contributions to IFAB's decision-making process.
