NFF Offers Keshi N168 Million Two-year Deal - Sports - SLB9ja

Outgone Super Eagles’ boss, Stephen Keshi, has been offered N168 million for a new two-year deal to remain at his post. The contract ups to N7 million Keshi’s monthly salary.

He was being paid, until the ouster of the Super Eagles from the World Cup and an end to his contract, a monthly salary of N5 million. The loss in the Round of 16 match to the Les Blues of France marked the end of the contract.

The Eagle Online reliably gathered that the plan to offer Keshi an improved deal came amid confusion over the status of his employment with the Nigeria Football Federation.

 The Big Boss, who is yet to append his signature to the new deal, was said to have complained about the clauses contained in the new contract papers. It was also learnt that the Nigeria Football Federation has put in place plans to hire a foreign coach to be assisted by a local coach should Keshi reject the new offer.

 On the contrary, the AFCON 2013 winning coach told The Eagle Online that he would insist that the football house provides him with an official accommodation and a car to function. Keshi told The Eagle Online: “My contract effectively ended with the Super Eagles ouster from the World Cup. “So, there is no reason resigning from the job. “However, we are yet to agree a new contract. “So I remain a free agent until otherwise.”
