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.
