The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has confirmed that an agreement has been reached with Jose Santos Peseiro to extend his role as the Head Coach of Nigeria’s Senior Men National Team, the Super Eagles.
The Director of Media at the NFF, Ademola Olajire, said this in a statement on Sunday.
In accordance with the original contract, which was established in May 2022, the Portuguese coach has been tasked with leading the Super Eagles to, at the very least, the semi-finals of the 34th Africa Cup of Nations scheduled to take place in Cote d’Ivoire in the coming months.

Peseiro has guided the Super Eagles through the qualifiers, securing their place with a match to spare. This journey included a remarkable 10-0 victory over Sao Tome and Principe in Agadir, Morocco, in June 2022.
He has now agreed to continue in the role after accepting a pay cut on his earlier terms, with the new agreement also putting him in charge of the Super Eagles B – the home-based professionals who contest the biennial African Nations Championship.
