SUPER Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro has announced his exit as coach of the Nigerian senior team.
He made the disclosure on his X handle @JosePeseiro Friday afternoon.
“Yesterday, we concluded our contract with the NFF. It was a pride and honor to coach the Super Eagles.
“It has been 22 months of immense dedication, sacrifice, emotion, and enormous enthusiasm. We feel a sense of fulfillment.
“We would like to express our gratitude to Sir Amaju Pinnick (the president who signed us), President Ibrahim Gusau, General Secretary Mohammed Sanusi, Secretary Dayo Enebi, the NFF, all the Staff, and especially all the PLAYERS, with whom leading has been a great pleasure,” he posted.
Peseiro’s contract with the NFF elapsed February 29 and could be said to have gone beyond the agreed Semi-Finals of the last Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in which he lost the final to the host, Cote D’Voire.
