The Nigerian Football Association has confirmed that, Nigerian football legend-Stephen Keshi, has died at the age of 54. He is reported to have suffered a heart attack.
A former captain of the Nigeria national team, Keshi was one of only two men to win the Africa Cup of Nations both as a player and a coach.
After his football career with one of the teams he is remembered at for his excellent play being Belgian club Anderlecht, Keshi managed Togo and Mali. He also coached the Nigerian national team over three spells, leading Nigeria to the 2013 Nations Cup title in South Africa and the last 16 at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
But he was sacked in July, 2015.
As a player, Stephen Keshi was part of the Super Eagles team that won the Nations Cup in 1994 and narrowly missed out on a World Cup quarter-final place the same year.
