NFF gives Jose Peseiro conditions to remain as Super Eagles coach

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has said new Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro must qualify for the 2022 World Cup and reach the quarter-final of the tournament.

NFF vice-president, Shehu Dikko, speaking with ESPN, said that if he fails to do so, the situation will be reviewed and a decision taken.

“If he does not qualify us for this World Cup, we will review the situation objectively and make a decision based on that,” Dikko said.
