Super Eagles Coach Gernot Rohr has accepted the terms of the new contract offered to him by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) despite the stringent conditions.


Rohr told a Radio France reporter that he agreed to pen the deal despite the stringent conditions that were included in the new contract because he has unfinished business with the Eagles squad.

The German tactician believes the team is filled with young but experienced players who will do great things in the coming years.

Rohr is expected to sign the contract extension next week.

The Franco-German coach who accepted a pay cut also agreed to stay in Nigeria as he continues to be in charge till 2022.

Rohr has been in charge of the Nigerian national football team since August 2016, leading the 2013 African champions to a third-place finish at the 2019 African Cup of Nations in Egypt.
