Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Amaju Pelvin Pinnick says Portuguese coach Jose Peseiro can take another job.
Pinnick confirmed that the NFF is yet to seal a deal with Peseiro and discussions over a contract has stalled because of circumstances.
“I am still talking to him (Peseiro), maybe he has to wait till after the World Cup qualifiers (vs Ghana),” Pinnick told Channels TV.
“If in the course of his waiting, he got another job, we wish him well.
“The good news is that we did not sign the contract officially.
“We don’t want to rush and make a hasty decision considering the circumstances.
“We have to do what is best for the nation.
“And we work in harmony with the sports ministry, which represents the government.”
The Super Eagles will take on eternal rivals Black Stars of Ghana in a 2022 FIFA World Cup playoff next month.
