Born in Agoè-Nyivé on December 15, 1990, EDIHE Daniel Kodjo is a young Togolese coach currently proving himself in the United States, more precisely at "York College", a federal university in New York. Let's discover this Togolese talent.
EDIHE Daniel Kodjo has been the assistant coach of the men's soccer team "York College" since September 2023, which is a higher education institution in New York (United States). He is also responsible for recruiting students who would like to join the University and do sports activities, "SOCCER" session (Football). He arrived at York College with extensive international experience in the development of U15 to U20 athletes.
Indeed, the former player of Kotoko de Lavié (Togo) and AS Denguelé (Côte d'Ivoire) has been wearing the cap of head coach at the FFF (French Football Federation) Academy NYC since June 2023 and in charge of recreational programs.
Here is his detailed career:
➠ From 2017 to 2020, EDIHE trained U15 to U20 students as an assistant coach at the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Academy in Lebanon. During this period, he obtained the PSG football coach certification.
➠ In 2021, Daniel Kodjo was the Head Coach of H16 Sport Service India Training Academy in India, where he established training programs for athletes from U15 to U20 level.
➠ From 2021 to 2023, EDIHE Daniel Kodjo was based in Lomé, Togo, where he continued to gain valuable experience. From September 2021 to October 2022, he participated in the great season of Etoile Filante de Lomé, which finished top of group A of the 1st phase of D2 2021-2022 before failing to finish 3rd in the play-offs, one place away from promotion to D1.
➠ EDIHE began a second stint during the 2022-2023 season in the second division with Etoile Filante from January 2023 to May 2023 for his second stint as assistant coach. During his time with the Shooting Stars, the native of Agoè-Nyivé designed complete and effective game plans while helping the head coaches take notes and implement their action plans.
➠ It should be noted that before his second stint with the Blues of the capital, EDIHE Daniel Kodjo was head coach of Edisport Togo Soccer Academy in November 2022, an academy that he himself set up in his native country, more precisely in Adidogomé Sagbado.
It is therefore thanks to his rich experience that the prestigious American university "York College" has trusted him since September 2023.
I am excited about this opportunity with the York College men's team under the direction of head coach Brahim Chhab, whom I will assist and help create a strong college football program. Coach Chhab explained my mission in the program to me and I am convinced that I will contribute to the recruitment and development of student-athletes on and off the field.
