AFCON 2025
Footballers tend to go into coaching, commentary, punditry or business after their careers and Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre has decided on what she intends to do.
Plumptre says she wants to coach young kids with dreams of playing football professionally at the end of her career.
Recall that the former Leicester City Women defender recently bagged her UEFA B coaching license after she she secured a move to Al Ittihad Women in Saudi Arabia.
Ashleigh Plumptre added that she would love to coach kids in Nigeria as she revealed that her family members are in the country.
The 27-year-old left-back shared her thoughts in a chat with Brila Media in Super Falcons camp in Morocco.
Ashleigh Plumptre is with the Super Falcons at the ongoing Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco and has featured in two of the three group stage matches.
The Al Ittihad Women defender has been arguably the most impressive player in the team so far despite sitting out the final group match against Algeria.
Plumptre wil look to continue her impressive run when the Super Falcons take on the Copper Queens of Zambia in the quarter-final on Friday evening.
