Enyimba head coach, Stanley Eguma, has declared that his side’s target ahead of the 2025/26 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season is to win the league title “or pick a continental ticket, at worst,” www.aclsports.com reports.
Eguma shared his thoughts with the club’s official website, Enyimbafc.net, this week as Enyimba continue their pre-season preparations ahead of their opening day fixture away to newly-promoted Barau FC.
“Enyimba as a team have a target, and as a coach, an ambitious one at that, I equally have a target,” he stated. “And my target should be to win the league or pick a continental ticket, at worst.
“Having achieved that in the past, I think I should be looking at something that will surpass my achievement. And that is what the club is looking at achieving as well. Remember, we’re nine-time champions of the NPFL and two-time African champions. I think anything short of that would not be a good achievement.
“So, the club are also looking to surpass their previous performance. Of course, we have to achieve that collectively. That’s the target that I have. Before the management will set a target for me, I’ve already set one for myself, because I’m very ambitious, and I feel I have a lot to offer,” the veteran tactician concluded.
Last season, Eguma, having arrived in December 2024, led the record nine-time league winners to a sixth-place finish in the NPFL. However, the two-time league winner with Dolphins and Rivers United will hope to achieve the set target in the 2025-26 season.
