NFF yet to offer Keshi fresh contract

ProsperProsper Posts: 1,432

Re-appointed Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi has not yet been given a new contract by the Nigeria Football Federation. Indeed, discussion on new contract has not been reopened, informed sources have said.

Keshi has been in the shadows since his infamous reinstatement as Super Eagles head coach as we gathered he was still trying to straighten certain aspects of his continuous stay with the team before the resumption of the 2015 Afcon qualifiers camp today

The ‘Big Boss’, as he is fondly called was conspicuously absent from the touchline during the international friendly between Ghana U-23 team, the Black Meteors and the home-based Super Eagles at the commissioning of the new Akwa Ibom International Stadium in Uyo on Friday. He however made a surprise appearance during the medal presentation ceremony to receive his medal.

“There’s no contract offer at the moment, it could be revisited at the end of the Nations Cup qualifiers,” an NFF official said in Abuja, at the weekend.

“The decision to allow him finish the qualifications came from above [the presidency], he is working based on a previous arrangement agreed after the World Cup,” the source continued

The 52-year-old is paying the price for poor results in qualification for next year’s Africa Cup of Nations but he was given a chance to make amends following the intervention of the presidency.

Nigeria face Congo and South Africa in the coming days, needing two wins to stand a chance of making it to the 2015 tournament.
