NFF set for new contract talks with Rohr

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) will present a new contract to Super Eagles’ Manager, Gernot Rohr next month, which is a clear five months before his current deal expires.
According to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), the deal will spell out certain conditions, which the German must adhere to, to avoid the issues that have dogged the national team and the coach’s relationship with the federation.

NFF President, Amaju Pinnick told journalists in Benin during the federation’s 75th Annual General Assembly that should Rohr decline the new offer, the federation would swiftly get a new manager.

Rohr, who became Super Eagles manager in August 2016, qualified Nigeria for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and won bronze at the 2019 African Cup of Nations in Egypt. His current deal will expire in June 2020.

Pinnick said, “We are going to present the contract proposal to Rohr next month and we have already mandated the first Vice-President to constitute the legal team to draft the new proposal, which will be made available to the coach next month.”

Pinnick expressed the NFF’s desire to retain Rohr as Super Eagles’ manager, adding, however, that in the negotiations, Nigeria’s interest would be paramount.

He added: “If we don’t want him to continue as Eagles manager, we would not even contemplate drafting a new proposal for him, but we are okay with him. We only want to institute some things that would protect the interest of Nigeria and its football in the new contract.

“That is why we are starting next month so that he can have enough time to study the offer and accept. If he does not accept our new offer as Timaya said, ‘’I cannot kill myself’ and we would shop for a new manager to take over.”

I read am but I no believe

Who dash herta Berlin 45 million ?

Even if dem get am dem go use am buy 5 players and not xhaka

And you believed Arsenal will hand Leicester City $45M plus Xhaka for Ndidi?

you cannot take the "Nigerian" away from him

tbaba1234:
Manuel Akanji's shin pads

even if we approached him that doesn't make him less Nigerian. He has the right to use the flag whenever he wants.

tbaba1234:
Why?? You did not approach him when you had the opportunity

Eze to Tottenham speculation growing stronger

True

andrewbaba44:
Lol

Your skippo ooo

Xhaka is not bad as arsenal fans sees him bro

Xhaka should make the line up of all big teams in the epl apart from City and Liverpool

Xhaka is average man. Dude lacks mobility, pace and isn't press resistant.
Give him space and he's the second coming of Xabi Alonso. Put him under the slightest amount of pressure and the dude fumbles.
Bundesliga will suit him well Sha..

jihday:
Eze to Tottenham speculation growing stronger

Great move. I hope we get this guy man... Praying for a miracle...

Eze to Tottenham speculation growing stronger

Audio speculation

jihday:
if arsenal manage to sell him for 45mill, it will be a bigger scam than Liverpool selling Solanke for 20mill

It would be somewhere around 35m pounds which is what we paid for him. Not a bad deal..

ChrisKels:
Oya let's see who's been paying attention, really

Kanu Nwankwo Against chelsea

andrewbaba44:
Na me give you that name

I dey find who i go name papa nwakali

I don't think you recall it well at all. It was TheSupernerd who first named Charlesemeka85, Papa Aribo. Since then, everyone including you began calling him by that name. Nerdie is the one guy I know on this thread who names monikers and it kinda sticks. Don't know how he does it. Lol

Barryseal:

Where did I speak about xhaka joining Leicester for 45 million plus Ndidi ?

But if so self isn’t it worth it ?

Xhaka should not be worth more than 20 million and the Ndidi we know is worth 55-60

I am sure Leicester city don’t want xhaka self

Some rumors self ehn...20mil plus ndidi...for uncle xhaka...tufiakwa..if I b arsenal I go rush d deal like mad

I misread d initial quote..its xhaka plus 20mil for ndidi..Leicester would be crazy to take dat deal

andrewbaba44:

NFF President Amaju Pinnick said: "If Gernot Rohr does not accept our new offer, as Timaya said, '’I cannot kill myself’ and we would shop for a new manager to take over.”

The public differences over the last few months make it very clear that all is not well with that once cosy relationship.

Amaju and Rohr have been having difficulties and difference but alarmingly in the public domain. With Rohr trying to assert some control over the domineering Amaju.

My suspicion is a contract is offered but on different terms. I also doubt if Rohr will agree to sharing a substantial part of his pay packet with the powers that be.

In the end the contract signed will be devoid of Egunje arrangements. Amaju with the EFFC and other bodies watching him is in a weak position and the contract will be signed.

For me Rohr has been the best thing that has happened to Nigerian football in a long time.

QPR don't gave the financial stability to say no to a substantive offer from Tottenham. All that's happening is posturing by QPR in a shirt while Eze will be a Tottenham player.

What a mercurial rise barely three years ago Millwall released as Eze not good enough. He was on his way to working in Tesco and going to College.

This is the unpredictability of football sometimes but in his case knowing Millwall l will call a spade a spade Racism.

I don't totally disagree with you but it's the tag AVERAGE yes he isn't particularly outstanding and can be consistent.

But this same Xhaka will walk into the SE.

Now if you were to call any of our players apart from say Ndidi and now Osimhen average you would get lynched here and be labelled HATER.

charlesemeka85:
i have given up on the guy tey tey na una just dey stress una self. he really need to work extra hard to make it in professional football

his current ordeal was caused by the nff and coaches of our underage teams who pampers him too much by inviting him for games when he is yet to do anything tangible since leaving the shores of africa to europe.

he is always lazy,clumsy and too relaxed to my liking which is evident in his body language during games. talent without hard work na nonsense

Agreed without reservation.

But l blame the player more not the NFF who are still not excused.

He must be reading Nairaland and believing TheSuperDelusional hype and wild accolades SPECIAL TALENT. And decided not to work hard and be focused.

He had opportunity but threw it in the bin.

Iwobi start from the flanks

It is official!!

Carlo Ancelotti is Everton new manager !

According to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), the deal will spell out certain conditions, which the German must adhere to, to avoid the issues that have dogged the national team and the coach’s relationship with the federation.

NFF President, Amaju Pinnick told journalists in Benin during the federation’s 75th Annual General Assembly that should Rohr decline the new offer, the federation would swiftly get a new manager.

Rohr, who became Super Eagles manager in August 2016, qualified Nigeria for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and won bronze at the 2019 African Cup of Nations in Egypt. His current deal will expire in June 2020.

Pinnick said, “We are going to present the contract proposal to Rohr next month and we have already mandated the first Vice-President to constitute the legal team to draft the new proposal, which will be made available to the coach next month.”

Pinnick expressed the NFF’s desire to retain Rohr as Super Eagles’ manager, adding, however, that in the negotiations, Nigeria’s interest would be paramount.

He added: “If we don’t want him to continue as Eagles manager, we would not even contemplate drafting a new proposal for him, but we are okay with him. We only want to institute some things that would protect the interest of Nigeria and its football in the new contract.

“That is why we are starting next month so that he can have enough time to study the offer and accept. If he does not accept our new offer as Timaya said, ‘’I cannot kill myself’ and we would shop for a new manager to take over.”

That's not a professional way to end the sentence or interview. Quite a nonchalant statement. His comments should be more respectful to Rohr even if Rohr refuses the proposal.

Iwobi under Ancelloti will dish many a humble pie.

No way will I pick a DLP like Xhaka for SE. Dude will get eaten alive.
On paper, someone like him would be the best partner for Ndidi but Na... too immobile. Turns like a damn moving truck. Positioning defensively is suspect as well.

Xhaka should not be worth more than 20 million and the Ndidi we know is worth 55-60

I am sure Leicester city don’t want xhaka self

Leicester have Choudbury and Mendy who are better than Xhaka

Hmmm I'm sorry it'll be extremely difficult to find someone that brings what Rohr does off the pitch for the peanuts NFF pays.
Pinnick better know what he's doing... Have a replace on par or at a higher level than Rohr or pay the consequences.
