The monthly salary of Super Eagles head coach named Jose Peseiro has become a big burden on the finances of the Nigeria Football Federation which chieftains of the Federation are battling to resolve, according to report. It was reliably gathered that the Federation was just waiting for the Super Eagles to end their Africa Cup of Nation's qualifiers on September 4 against Sao Tome and Principe before dealing with the issue of Peseiro huge salary.
Part of the likely measures will be to convince the Portuguese to accept a pay cut or take a walk to allow the Federation look for another coach that his own salary will be less. According to the top NFF brass, Coach Jose Peseiro contract is laden with too many concession. The Portuguese coach Jose Peseiro was seeded so much rights in the contract.
Jose Peseiro's $70,000 a month salary is not realistic, and this is putting a big burden on the lean purse of the football Federation. Among the other Africans nations, Jose Peseiro is about the highest paid coach, even Senegal don't pay that much to their coach according to the report from NFF officials. Super Eagles last Nation's Cup qualifying match is on the 4th of September against Sao Tome and Principe and by his contract that's the end.
The truth is that NFF can not continue to pay Jose Peseiro $70,000 monthly salaries. We are going to site down with whoever we want to hire and then forward it to the Federal Government. Super Eagles of Nigeria will start their World Cup qualifications in November,by then the NFF would have opened a fresh contract talk with the coach and will also involve the Nigerian Government in the recruitment process.
