Gateway Football Club has confirmed the appointment of Akeem Adaranijo as a caretaker coach until the end of the 2018/2019 NNL season, Bestchoicesports.com.ng can report

According to the media officer of the club, Moses Ojewumi, in a release sent to Bestchoicesports.com.ng, Adaranijo will be assisted by a yet to be named technical consultant.

Adaranhijo’s appointment came after the management made a u-trun and accepted the resignation letter of former coach Akeem Busari which it had rejected few hour ago

Akeem Adaranijo was part of the technical crew of Gateway FC during 2017/2018 NNL season and was found suitable to be in the dug-out for the remainder of the season.

Gateway United FC who are placed fifth in group B3 with two points are yet to secure a win in the current campaign.

With back to back losses to Nnewi United at home and Rovers FC in Calabar, the task for Adaranijo is to get the team back to winning ways and ensure their survival in the NNL.

Gateway United are next in action against Rovers FC on May 25th in Abeokuta.
