The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), held talks with Roma manager, Jose Mourinho, as they search for a new Super Eagles head coach, Newspremises reports.

NFF president Amaju Pinnick, made the confirmation during a media parley with sports journalists in Lagos on Wednesday, December 22, 2021.

The NFF boss also said the national team would get a new coach “within the next week or so”.

Austin Eguavoen was appointed on an interim basis, after Gernot Rohr was sacked earlier this month.

But the federation is in advanced negotiations for a permanent replacement for Rohr.

“We have spoken to three top coaches. Peseiro, whose name has been going around, is one of them and I can tell you he is a top coach.

“We also talked to Mladen (Krstajic). But after talking to him, he got a job with a top club in Israel with Maccabi Tel Aviv.

“They are coaches who the players cannot be bigger than. I believe we are doing everything we can and that’s why we interface with the ministry on every level.

“Of course Mourinho, I am not going to tell you we didn’t talk to Mourinho because we did and the (sports) minister also talked to Mourinho and there is nothing wrong with it,” Pinnick said.

Keep dreaming

Dumbass idiots,this pinnick is just straight up delusional and ineffective, you can't pay roh $45k monthly salary but you want to employ Mourinho that charges more than $1m monthly

Nlnders and bad mouth...
Which one is nff dey do window shopping! Haba

Can you manage Mourinho?

You think he's a regular coach you play politics with and owe months of salaries and allowances?

Pinnick, abeg look for a smaller coach you can mess around with.

“Of course Mourinho, I am not going to tell you we didn’t talk to Mourinho because we did and the (sports) minister also talked to Mourinho and there is nothing wrong with it,” Pinnick said.

Same Jose Mourinho,
The Special One and The Only One
For more jokes : Text NFF to 01

Pinnick is high on expired drugs.

At last.
You are SMART!!

Can you pay him without owing him for months?

Can please someone confirm Npower update master on Nairaland

They should be going for coaches whose approach to the game fits the style of play from the super eagles not an obviously outdated & pragmatic mourinho!

Besides,can they pay him?

Rohr is not serious....a no nonsense and reputable manager would have resigned a long time ago & proceed to make NFF pay him the backlog of his salary!

peseiro a top coach ? Am I reading correctly so Or has the definition of the word TOP changed

I ask again Peseiro a top coach

Mediocrity na wan finish una, gang of thieves
