Former Tremendous Eagles winger John Utaka has set his sights on a brand new profession aim, to turn out to be the primary African to win the UEFA Champions League as a Coach.

Utaka achieved success in 2008 as a part of the Portsmouth group that gained the English FA Cup alongside Nwankwo Kanu, and has since moved into teaching.

In 2020, the previous Portsmouth ace opened his personal academy. Two years later, he was appointed as assistant coach to the Montpellier U19s.

Now, Utaka is on the trail to acquiring his UEFA Professional badge, having already acquired his UEFA A license in 2022.

“If the chance comes to educate a group in Europe, I’ll embrace it,” Utaka advised DW.

“My dream is to win the trophies that I didn’t win as a participant. I wish to win them as a coach. We’ve by no means had an African coach win the Champions League. That could be a aim for me.”
