Sunday Oliseh, has told officials he is ready to accept the same five
million Naira (more than $21,000) a month salary his predecessor, Stephen
Keshi, earned.
The
ex-Eagles captain is due to fly into Abuja on Tuesday evening and later meet
with the Nigeria Football Federation technical committee headed by Felix
Anyansi-Agwu, africanFootball.com reports.
“Oliseh
is ready to earn the same pay Keshi was on,” a top official told
africanFootball.com
“This
again shows he is ready to serve his fatherland and money is not what is
driving him.
“This
is another good sign with the decision to give him the job without much
fanfare.”
The
NFF has confirmed Oliseh, 40, will replace Keshi and he will be handed a
five-year contract.
His
backroom staff will include a Dutch assistant coach, Salisu Yusuf as well as
Ike Shorunmu, who will remain as goalkeeper trainer.
His
most immediate task will be a 2017 African Nations Cup qualifier in Tanzania.
