Nigerian Football Federation President, Ibrahim Gusau has hinted that the fate of Super Eagles coach Jose Peseiro would be decided by fans.
Football fans have criticised the Portuguese for having poor technical knowledge and cited allegations of bias in the selection of Nigerian players playing in Europe’s top leagues.
In view of this, Gusau who described finding a new coach as a herculean task, said the views of Nigerians would help to decide if Peseiro would be retained or not.
After managing Porto and Sporting in his home country, the 63-year-old took over as manager of Nigeria’s football team in May of last year.
He led the country to the Africa Cup of Nations finals in Ivory Coast beginning in January, but his contract expires on June 30.
Nigeria has won four and lost five of their last six matches since failing to qualify for last year’s World Cup in Qatar.
