Eric Chelle has bid farewell to MC Oran fans in a long letter after accepting to manage the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
The 47-year-old was announced the new substantive head coach of the Super Eagles by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) this week.
The former defender took charge of MC Oran for the last time in an Algerian Cup clash with ES Setif on Saturday.
“After a nice adventure with MC Oran, I announce today the end of my journey with the club. This decision has not been an easy one to make, but it is in mutual respect and for the good of all parties,” Chelle wrote on Instagram.
