NFF Move To Renew Keshi’s Contract

The Nigeria coach saw his current deal lapsed at the end of the World Cup, and with no new offer on the table, announced he was leaving his position after the Super Eagles were eliminated at the round of 16.
But on Thursday, the executive committee led by a Acting President Mike Umeh, directed its Technical Sub committee to “open channels of communication with Mr. Stephen Keshi with a view to extending his contract, as the NFF is still interested in working with him.”
The committee is expected to report back within one week.
Furthermore, it was resolve that all financial issues must be thoroughly deliberate and agreed on ahead of major competitions to avoid incidents of player training boycotts which happened at the World Cup finals on Brazil.
