NFF to extend Rohr's contract NFF to extend Rohr's contract

The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is on course to retain the services of the Super Eagles' coach, Gernot Rohr, after revealing that contract talks are ongoing.

Rohr, whose current contract expires in June 2020, will however have to adhere to new rules after the NFF reportedly spiced the new contract with some additional terms and conditions.

Reports from a source quoted by Complete Sports confirmed the ongoing contract talks between the NFF and the German.

“We are definitely set for negotiations next week but the NFF is not going to compromise on certain conditions,” the source said according to the report.

According to other reports, the NFF has stipulated in the new contract offer that Rohr must reside in Nigeria and show more commitment to the local leagues.

Rohr was initially appointed by the NFF in August 2016 on a two-year contract which he renewed for another two years in January 2018.
