Chief coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Salisu Yusuf has been caught on camera taking N360, 000 from fake football agents who wanted him to select two players for the 2018 African Nations Championship (CHAN).

As the chief coach of the Super Eagles, Yusuf is in charge of the Super Eagles home-based side and an assistant to Gernot Rohr for the Super Eagles.

He was in charge of the Super Eagles Team B to the 2017 WAFU and 2018 CHAN where they lost in both finals.

In an investigation led by Ghanaian journalists Anas Aremeyaw, reporters posing as football agents for some players approached Yusuf in September 2017 for a conversation about players’ selection.

During the conversation, they handed the Nigerian coach N360, 000 ($1000) and alluded to more cash incentives if he selects their players for CHAN 2018 which held in Morocco.

The clip has been made public by BBC African Eye.

“So if anything goes through and these players are able to get their contracts, you will get 15% of that contract,” one of the reporters posing as an agent told Yusuf to which he replied; “they will be in CHAN.”

The two players were eventually selected for CHAN 2018 although the investigation stated that there is no suggestion that the money given to Yusuf influenced the selection.

Although he told the reporters that team selection is based solely on performances, Yusuf, a top Nigerian coach will be facing the wrath of FIFA, CAF and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).

Scandal!!
Has he resigned yet
No wonder he failed to win CHAN.... and many Nigerians will be advocating for indigenous coaches. I am not doubting their ability as a coach, but corruption won't let them perform. Civil servants are worse when it comes to corruption.
Being the one in charge of home-based Super Eagles, we now see why Rhor will not listen to him, and why the likes of Lokosa didn't make the Worldcup squad, no one to advocate for them!

Imagine, because of #360000 he has tarnished not only his own reputation, but that of all local coaches. To get them near SuperEagles top job will be hard.

Hmmm...yéyé dey smell

Ok

Corruption in Nigeria 5 and 6

I knew its just only time before this ana's deals with Nigeria as well I was scared of amaju and top nff and referee officials ...but the hook caught salisu Yusuf a world cup assistant coach . shame shame shame .

Corruption will be hard to eliminate in Nigeria.

Our insatiable appetite for quick money shall continue to ensure our retrogression as a Nation. This is a guy with good salary still hungry for dirty money...actions that are always capable of turning our teams to mere super lizards.

Welcome to Nigeria where competent professionals are neglected and the Incompetents are allowed to do the job.

It's really pathetic.


Is he actually going to deny this?

"Yusuf, a top Nigerian coach will be facing the wrath of FIFA, CAF and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF)"

Am not surprised, that is why we wonder why these boys play like ajibutter pikin them, no hardcore player atall,
But i go to the street and see real boys playing underground and very talented, they never get the chance to play, all we get to see is the likes of iwuobi and co playing nonsense.

No wonder we don't go far in continental tournaments. Some Nigerians are just addicted to bribery

If you are expecting him to resign then you are joking cause Baba has already set a bad precedent.
