Both parties still talking.”

5. Le Geun never wanted to stay in Nigeria: Pinnick also claimed that the French tactician wanted to be shuttling France and Nigeria but the he insisted that they wanted a coach who will acculturate with Nigerian football and meet set targets.
“Le Guen wanted to stay in France to be coming from time to time to take up the team on specific assignments. We are insisting on a Super Eagles coach that would reside in Nigeria. “We want a coach that will be more embracing in terms of football development in Nigeria.
He didn’t like targets. In the past we set targets for Siasia, for late Keshi and even Oliseh, why not him?
