Former Tanzania coach, Nigeria’s Emmanuel Amuneke has announced that he is open to new job offers from any where in the world.
Amuneke, who led the Taifa stars to their first African Cup of Nations in Egypt, left the job four months ago by mutual consent.
The 48-year-old, was sacrificed for the team’s failure to progress to the knock-out stages of Egypt 2019 after finishing bottom of their group with three defeats.
“I’m very open to any positive offer that comes because I’ve spent the last few weeks learning new ideas and methods,” Amuneke told BBC Sport from his base in Spain.
“As a manager you need to be honest with yourself and even though Tanzania is a closed chapter, I picked up valuable lessons from that job.
“I want a fresh start and it has to be something that is right, and hopefully the ambition will align with mine.”
The 1994 African Footballer of the Year, who had previously managed his country’s youth teams and Sudanese club SC Khartoum, is now seeking a fresh start.
Following his rising profile on the continent, Amuneke has inevitably been linked with the Nigeria job in the future by the local media.
And despite leaving his last two roles in East Africa by mutual consent, the former Barcelona and Portugal’s Sporting Club player is not restricting himself to the continent.
