The coach of the Super Eagles, Jose Peseiro, has confirmed quitting his job, as his contract expired on Thursday.
Peseiro made the confirmation on his X handle on Friday.
He said no new deal had been struck upon the expiration of his contract on Thursday.
His post reads: “Yesterday, we concluded our contract with the NFF. It was a pride and honour 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.
“Guys, we are thankful; it has been a privilege to be part of this family. We will miss you, but we will always be there for you, no matter where you are. A big hug to all of you.”
Peseiro, it would be recalled, was appointed Super Eagles head coach in 2022.
His last assignment was taking the Super Eagles to AFCON where the team lost to Cote d’Ivoire at the final.
