Super Eagles Technical Manager, Gernot Rohr on Tuesday smiled to the bank after receiving an alert of two months’ salary from his employer, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to boost his psychological readiness for the Africa Nations Cup.
Sports247 can confirm that though the federation had been indebted to national team coaches because, the Ministry of Sports and Youth Development had refused to release the monthly subventions of the federation.
Miffed by the increasing complaint by the coaches under its employment, the federation had exploited every financial avenue to raise fund for the salary arrears, prioritising the payment of the senior tacticians.
A top source in the Glass house told Sports247: “I can confirm to you that the federation is not owing Rohr a dime again.
We just paid him his remaining two months salary on Tuesday. However, if he still insists we owe him, we will consult our records.
We have equally compiled the names of the coaches and how much we owe them and as funds come, we will pay them soon.
