The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) remains silence over the contract details of the Super Eagles head coach Jose Peseiro.

The NFF kept mute on further details of the contract such as the duration of the contract and salary of the new Eagles boss.

However, several online platforms stated that the 62-year-old had been offered a performance one-year contract and is set to earn $70,000 (N30m) monthly.

NFF president, Amaju Pinnick, didn’t reply to the questions sent to his WhatsApp on the issue, as at Tuesday, 17th of May 2022.

Peseiro is expected to join the team in the US for the Mexico and Ecuador friendly games.
