NFF to review Super Eagles head coach salary

—

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is to review the salary of the Nigeria Super Eagles head coach. The Federation asserted that Jose Peseiro is amongst the top 5 earning coaches in Africa and will no longer be able to meet up with the monthly salary of around $70,000 monthly.

Peseiro’s one year contract expired last month and rumour about his future with the African giant is uncertain.

According to Fifa licensed journalist Samuel Tob in a message shared on his twitter page, NFF in the coming days will invite the Manager for a review or seek an alternative should an agreement not be reached with the Portuguese.

“Jose Peseiro earns more than the Moroccan coach & he is among the top 5 earners in Africa.

According to Complete Sports report; The $70,000 monthly salary has been an heavy burden on the Federation.

The NFF wants to review his salary & seek for alternatives.”

Jose Peseiro’s coaching prowess has not been convincing to many Nigerians since taking over the job from Eguaveon. Despite beating Sierra Leone in a difficult encounter to qualify for the 2024 AFCON in Ivory Coast, many football enthusiasts still believe more is expected from the manager.
