New Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro has reportedly been appointed on a one-year deal.
The Portuguese coach will take over the National team as confirmed by the Nigeria Football Federation, on Sunday, May 15.
According to reports, Jose’s renewal is conditioned on his performance within the next 12 months.
OwnGoal Nigeria revealed that, “The 12-month deal is subject to renewal based on performance-related clauses.
“It is understood the NFF has given Peseiro a short-term contract, because of their legal battle on payments with former Nigeria coach, Gernot Rohr.
“FIFA has already ordered the federation to pay Rohr the sum of $380,000 as compensation for breach of contract.”
Peseiro’s debut matches as Super Eagles coach are friendlies against Ecuador and Mexico in the US.
