Super Eagles: NFF, Peseiro agree on Contract Extension

Super Eagles: NFF, Peseiro agree on Contract Extension
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Portuguese coach for the Nigerian Super Eagles, Jose Santos Peseiro have reached an agreement with the Nigeria Football Federation for the latter to continue in his role as Head Coach of the Senior Men National Team of Nigeria, Super Eagles.

As stipulated in the original contract, drawn in May 2022, the Portuguese has been handed the mandate to lead the Super Eagles to, in the minimum, the semi-finals of the 34th  Africa Cup of Nations finals taking place in Cote d’Ivoire in a few months’ time.

Peseiro has steered the Super Eagles through the qualifiers and to a ticket with a match to spare, including a 10-0 record international win against Sao Tome and Principe in Agadir, Morocco in June 2022.

He has now agreed to continue in the role after accepting a pay cut on his earlier terms, with the new agreement also putting him in charge of the Super Eagles B – the home-based professionals who contest the biennial African Nations Championship.

Meanwhile, the Super Eagles’ supremo has invited on-field captain William Ekong, defender Tyronne Ebuehi and Semi Ajayi, midfielders Wilfred Ndidi and Frank Onyeka, and forwards Moses Simon, Victor Osimhen and Taiwo Awoniyi, among others, to next weekend’s qualification series final-day encounter against Sao Tome and Principe in Uyo.

Peseiro called three goalkeepers (including home-based Olorunleke Ojo), eight defenders, four midfielders and eight forwards for the game, slated for the Godswill Akpabio Stadium on Sunday, 10 September.

Nigeria, on 12 points from their previous five matches, are already guaranteed a place in the finals, but must earn at least a point to be sure of topping the group ahead of second-placed Guinea Bissau, who are on 10 points and play at home to Sierra Leone in Bissau.

Peseiro has called for the first time Belgium-based centre-back Jordan Torunarigha and forwards Victor Boniface and Gift Orban, and there are recalls for Portugal-based left back Bruno Onyemaechi and defensive midfielder Raphael Onyedika.

All the invited Players:

Goalkeepers: Francis Uzoho (Omonia FC); Olorunleke Ojo (Enyimba ); Adebayo Adeleye (Hapoel Jerusalem)

Defenders: Olaoluwa Aina (Nottingham Forest); Tyronne Ebuehi (Empoli FC); Jordan Torunarigha (KAA Gent); William Ekong (PAOK FC); Semi Ajayi (West Brom; Calvin Bassey (Fulham); Jamilu Collins (Cardiff FC); Bruno Onyemaechi (Boavista ).

Midfielders: Wilfred Ndidi (Leicester ); Raphael Onyedika (Club Brugge); Joe Ayodele-Aribo (Southampton); Frank Onyeka (Brentford ).

Forwards: Kelechi Iheanacho (Leicester); Samuel Chukwueze (AC Milan); Moses Simon (Nantes,); Ademola Lookman (Atalanta); Victor Osimhen (Napoli ); Taiwo Awoniyi (Nottingham Forest); Gift Orban (KAA Gent); Victor Boniface (Leverkusen).
