Two-time champions, Enyimba FC, are not looking to win the 2016 CAF Champions League title, according to head coach, Paul Aigbogun.
Enyimba were crowned African club champions in 2003 and 2004 but have underwhelmed in recent seasons.
The People’s Elephant last progressed past the group stages of the competition in 2011 and Aigbogun believes expectations should be modest this year.
“I never set out to win the Champions League trophy with Enyimba this year. That will be looking too far ahead. My target is to do better than they did last year (when Enyimba was beaten in the first round by Egyptian club Smouha).
“The target for now is to win our preliminary round tie in the competition and get into the next round,” Aigbogun said.
Enyimba will face Ugandan club Vipers in the preliminary round of the competition.
The first leg will be played on the weekend of February 12-14 at the 5,000 capacity Buikwe Stadium, Wakiso.
The return fixture will be held on February 28 at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.
