NFF makes decision on Peseiro’s contract renewal



The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has offered Jose Peseiro a new contract to remain as Super Eagles coach but with the same monthly salary of $50,000.

Peseiro’s deal as Nigeria coach expired at the end of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations where the country finished second after losing the final game to Ivory Coast.

The Portuguese coach has been at the helm of the Nigeria national team since May 2022 and he took a huge pay cut from $70,000 in 2023 to continue as the Super Eagles coach after months of non-payment of salary.

One of Peseiro’s targets was to lead Nigeria to AFCON 2023 semi-final which he achieved and he guided the country to a podium finish as silver medallists.

The 63-year-old, in a recent interview, disclosed that he would decide on his future after taking a short break from football.

The former Venezuela coach has emerged as target for several countries after his AFCON feat with Nigeria, with Algeria reportedly eyeing his services.

Nigeria’s next competitive outing will be the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in June with games against South Africa and Benin Republic scheduled.

The Super Eagles currently sit third in Group C behind leaders Rwanda and South Africa, after settling for draws against Lesotho and Zimbabwe in November 2023.

It’s the Nigerian sense of entitlement on the African continent that other Africans despise.
Door mats?
I really fear for the next local coach that gets the job if he has that mentality.
Nigerians will eat him raw and spit out the bones.

Now the NFF must get someone much better than JP and get the SE winning again and again, because winning is sweet and i mean very sweet

Breaking news? Clowns everywhere.

[ohenhen1]

NFF is really slow. It doesn't this long to appoint another journey man coach.

[ohenhen1]

Now that they have advertised. They just started the process to look for another coach. March 12 is the deadline to apply,. They will then set up committees that will interview coaches. The committee will present reports to the exco, They will then make a decision. After the decision is made, they will then start negotiating a contract, We are still about a few months away from a new coach, It usually takes 3 to 6 months. This is how they do business. Eguavon or an interim coach will probably handle the qualifiers in June.

[Enugu II]

Some what, I feel that negotiation continues. This is a last ditch effort to force Peseiro's hands. It is a dangerous tactics but effective if Peseiro has no viable option. The issue here is really about money and the gap between the coach and the NFF is very wide and an agreement may not be close.

I don’t think Pesseiro wants to return otherwise he would ask for a more realistic salary. He knows they don’t have $120k, never had it, can’t get it and will never have it.

Not having an offer doesn’t mean he wants to return. He likely thinks it’s not worth the hassle and if he has to take it then he wants a ridiculous amount. He certainly isn’t motivated by winning Afcon next yr or the WC. Sometimes we ain’t worth the hassle.

Emir,

In negotiation, how do you exactly know what the other party has? The strategy is to push the limits and force tge other to act. For instance when the NFF offered 50k was it their limit? Nope! How do we know? Because peseiro refused and NFF came back with 80k. The deal is push until you discover the limit. I am certain Peseiro does not expect to get 150k. It was simply his first offer. He is likely to accept something less but that has to be discovered.

I am not certain it is closed with any certainty. We have not heard from Peseiro on that.

My interpretation is that both parties are now playing a dangerous game of roulette hardball. Let's see who blinks first.
