Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi, has told the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), that he should be earning more than the N10m, which he is being offered in his new contract.
Emma Addo, who is Keshi’s spokesperson told journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, that the Big Boss has received a bigger offer from an Angolan club.
“Keshi is bigger than N10 million,” he said. “He is not a 5 or 10 million naira coach. A club in Angola is ready to offer him $120,000 (N18 million) a month.”
Keshi’s legal adviser, Francis Koza, was also present at the media briefing and had in his possession, a copy of the new deal the NFF has proposed to Keshi.
“He can cut short his holiday. He is on alert to come but I can assure you he won’t be here on Friday until his contract I’m holding is agreed upon,” Koza added.
“It has to be a give and take arrangement, we would not sign any contract that does not take care of his interest,” Keshi’s spokesperson added.
Another man, who claims to be Keshi’s brother, said in another statement that the coach will not be intimidated into signing a contract extension with Nigeria.
“I want to stress that he (Keshi) will not be intimidated or blackmailed into accepting the contract as proposed by the federation.
“The federation has always been aware of the September 6th qualifying match; this is no excuse to rush our client into signing a contract that he (has) serious objections about certain parts.

“Statements portraying or capable of portraying our client as unreasonable must be avoided. “We hope both sides will be able to reach common grounds on the issues that our client has reservations about.”
