Jose Peseiro has spoken for the first time on the end of his romance with the Super Eagles even before it began.
InTv had reported that the football federation dismissed Germany’s Gernot Rohr weeks ahead of the Cup of Nations, with technical director Augustine Eguavoen taking charge on an interim basis.
“After careful consideration of a memo presented by chairman of the technical and development sub-committee, the executive committee endorsed a proposal for the appointment of Mr Jose Peseiro as the new head coach of the Super Eagles,” the Nigeria Football Federation said.
In December, the 61-year-old Portuguese coach was announced by the NFF as the new coach of the Super Eagles after the AFCON in Cameroon.
Peseiro, 61, has an extensive coaching resume including the Saudi Arabian and Venezuelan national teams and club sides in Greece, Romania, the middle-east, and his native country – most recently at Lisbon club Sporting.
However, on Monday the NFF rescinded this decision due to several circumstances and went ahead to announce Austin Eguavoen will continue as interim coach of the Super Eagles for next month’s World Cup playoffs against Ghana.
Peseiro has now taken to twitter to give his own side of the story, saying he disagreed on some clauses on the proposed contract as well as some financial issues, which caused the parties not to sign a deal.
He said: “After several weeks of negotiations, during which a number of decisions emerged with the Nigerian football federation announcing that I would be the coach of their national team by the end of 2021 AFCON, an announcement that I never confirmed, this did not happen because of disagreement over some clauses (in the contract) and financial issues.”
Hey there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any recommendations?
