NFF chiefs meet in Lagos to discuss new coach
Plans to appoint the new
The Super Eagles of Nigeria have been without a permanent coach since Sunday Oliseh resigned in February, 2016.
With reports that French coach, Paul Le Guen has agreed a deal with the NFF, Pinnick will on Friday lead a meeting with his chiefs to conclude plans to announce the new Super Eagles manager.
NFF vice-presidents, Seyi Akinwunmi and Shehu Dikko, as well as NFF technical committee chairman Chris Green will all be at the meeting in Lagos.
“They will meet to possibly decide on a short list of coaches who have applied for the vacant Eagles post and also the modalities for their engagement,” African Football’s report said.
According to several reports, the NFF have already held talks with Le Guen and a N16.2m per month deal has been agreed.
The last Super Eagles coach, Oliseh was paid N5million monthly before he resigned in February, 2016.
Before Oliseh, late Stephen Keshi was said to be on a N7m per month deal before he was sacked last year.
