NFF on Rohr’s new contract: He has done very well

Amaju Pinnick, president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), says Super Eagles gaffer Gernot Rohr was given a new two-year contract because of his good performance.

Rohr, signed by the NFF in August 2016, has met one of the conditions of his contract, which is to qualify the Super Eagles for a sixth FIFA World Cup.

 

“We have decided to confront head-on any possible area of conflict or controversy, and fully resolve each and every possible friction point well ahead of the competition,” Pinnick said in a statement made available to TheCable on Tuesday.

“After signing the agreement on payment to the team from expected FIFA income, the next stage was to take care of the technical adviser.

“He has done very well and does not need to go into the World Cup uncertain of his future.”

Rohr, a former Germany defender, has a sterling record with the Super Eagles, winning seven matches and drawing four. His only loss was to South Africa’s Bafana Bafana in June 2017.
