    No contract extension discussion – NFF on Chelle’s status after AFCON

    Published on

    President of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Ibrahim Gusau, has revealed that there are currently no plans to offer Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle a new contract extension after the AFCON tournament in Morocco.

    Chelle was appointed coach of the Super Eagles in January 2025.

    The Malian led the three-time African champions to win Bronze after beating Egypt.

    Speaking with sports journalist Osasu Obayiuwana, Gusau explained that discussions regarding a contract extension for Chelle are premature, as the coach is only halfway through his current 2-year deal.

    “For now, There’ll be no contract extension discussion with Chelle,” Gasau said.

    “We signed a 2-year contract with him in January 2025 and he’s still only halfway through his contract.”
