Suffo, who enjoyed a prolific playing career as a dynamic striker, has reportedly signed a two-year contract, as confirmed by sports journalist Martin Camus Mimb. He has already hit the ground running by engaging with the U15 squad, setting the stage for his upcoming responsibilities with the U21 team.
Born on January 17, 1978, in Ebolowa, Cameroon, he honed his skills in France before a successful European career, notably at Barcelona B and Coventry City, where he made a significant impact from 2003 to 2005.
On the international stage, Suffo had the honor of representing Cameroon, where he achieved remarkable success, including winning a gold medal at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. He also participated in the 2002 FIFA World Cup, further solidifying his status as a player of international repute.

He is well aware of the demands of modern football and the importance of developing players who can compete at the highest levels.
Suffo’s appointment is widely regarded as a positive development for Coventry City, reflecting the club’s strategic vision to cultivate homegrown talent.
His dual perspective as a former player and a coach is expected to resonate deeply with the young players, motivating them to reach their full potential. By sharing his own experiences, both the triumphs and challenges, Suffo can provide invaluable mentorship that transcends technical skills
