Nigeria coaching job up for grabs as NFF advertise post

 Austin Eguavoen is currently acting as caretaker coach of the Super Eagles

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has announced that it will advertise the vacant Super Eagles coaching post.

NFF board member Chris Green confirmed that after its executive committee's inaugural meeting, it was agreed the job would be open to applicants.
The new NFF executives said the move was taken in the interest of transparency.
Green also said that a new coach would be hired by 1 October, just days before an important qualifier away in Guinea.
The NFF announcement is a complete departure from earlier developments where the previous leadership of the football association had already opened discussions with former Olympic team coach, Samson Siasia.
Siasia's appointment stalled over his personal terms. The NFF offered him a monthly salary of $20,000, while the 42-year-old requested $100,000 and a signing-on fee.
Austin Eguavoen is currently in temporary charge of the national team, after Swedish coach Lars Lagerback vacated the position following Nigeria's disappointing World Cup showing.
