We’re In Good Terms With Rohr – NFF Reveals

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has reiterated that the football body and the technical adviser of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr are in good terms.

There are growing reports that the German tactician may not have his contract renewed by the football body after his contract expires in June 2020, due to the ongoing misunderstanding between both parties.

However, an inside source in the NFF denied such reports and claimed that the media are blowing the issue beyond proportion.

The source also said that the former Bordeaux manager has no intention of breaching his contract and willing to pen a new contract with the NFF in order to continue with his progress with the Super Eagles.

“Rohr does not have any issue with the federation. I don’t think Rohr hiring a lawyer to assist him negotiate his dealings with NFF so that he can focus on the Super Eagles job is an issue.

“Also, the NFF issuing querying him does not affect their relationship. An employer can query his worker at any point, but that does not stop them from working together.

“Rohr has done well with the Super Eagles and I believe he will like to continue handling the team,” the source said.
