Former Super Eagles defender, Austin Eguavoen, has said Eagles Manager, Genort Rohr, deserves a new contract on the condition that he resides in Nigeria.
Eguavoen who took over the captainship band from late Stephen Keshi said living in Nigeria, would afford him time to watch over our local players and also help develop the local football.
“Westerhof did the same while coaching the Super Eagles team and players back home in the league had access to him directly”, the former ACB and New Nigerian defender said.

“Rhor has done well, he deserves a new contract, but he must stay here in Nigeria to help us develop our league and our football,” Eguavoen noted.
“I don’t think that should be a big deal, Rohr deserves a contract but I want him more here in the country than out there,” the former Super Eagles defender pointed out.
Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) is yet to agree on how much Super Eagles manager Gernot Rohr should earn under the terms of his proposed new contract NFF president Amaju Pinnick has said.

Rohr earns a tax-free monthly salary of $55,000 on his current contract which runs out in June.
The NFF has already made it clear that an extension for the Franco-German will be tied to some fresh conditions such as living in Nigeria and paying taxes on his salary.
