The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has responded to the news about Bruno Labbadia’s turnaround from taking up the post as Super Eagles coach.
Hours ago, it was reported that German tactician Labbadia turned down the NFF job after the federation made noise about it.
According to naijanewsbox correspondent, the NFF, via its communication director, Ademola Olajire, shared an email explaining the reasons why the federation and the German could not ink a final deal.
the communiqué continued that the NFF President, Ibrahim Gusau, said that the current tax issue was never part of the initial discussions with Labbadia from the early to the final part of the agreement until recently.
meanwhile, Technical Director, Augustine Eguavoen will take charge of the Super Eagles for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Benin Republic and Rwanda.
