Rohr denies $1m dollars buy out clause in his contract
Super Eagles head Gernot Rohr has revealed that the buyout clause in his contract which expires mid-June 2020 isn’t $1m as being bandied in the media.
Rohr, however, didn’t disclose the figure but hinted it was far below $1m.
” I was shocked when I read that the NFF can’t part ways with me if they are no longer satisfied with my services because of the $1m buy out clause in my contract which is not true. The NFF has the right to ask me to go and I have the right to say am done with the Super Eagles job.
Rohr further stated that before the just concluded AFCON 2019 in Egypt, his target was to win the trophy but he was happy that he returned to Nigeria with the bronze medal after 3 years as head coach.
Rohr was also commended by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for meeting the target set for him.
“Gernot has taken us to the semi-final, the target we set for him. Right now, we have a third-place match to play for and we intend to have our team leave Egypt with honour, NFF President, Amaju Pinnick told journalists in Egypt.
