‘There is lack of respect and promises are not kept’ – Gernot Rohr gives reasons he may decide to quit Super Eagles job

Gernot Rohr has revealed he may quit his job as Super Eagles Head coach when his contract expires in 2020.

According to the Franco-German born coach, many things make his work as the coach difficult.

Gernort said he has faced alot of broken promises, he is not being respected and the Nigerian Football Federation has a lot of organizational problems.

It would be recalled that Nigeria Football Federation, headed by former Delta FA boss Amaju Pinnick promised to send Rohr to Germany on a refresher course with Bayern Munich after the Super Eagles exited the Africa Cup of Nations but that promise has not been fulfilled.

When asked by Mannheimer Morgen on the possibility of staying with Nigeria’s national team past 2020, Rohr replied; ”Yes and no. On the one hand, we have built a good team, the youngest on average in Africa.

”On the other hand, there are many things that make daily work difficult: lack of respect, organizational problems, promises are not kept. We will see how it goes on”.

Rohr revealed he had received offers from four countries namely Morocco, Cameroon, Mali and Congo but that he loves Nigeria and will like to finish his contract.

He added, ”Yes. But I love this team and I really wanted to fulfill my contract”.

Rohr’s next official assignment is taking the Super Eagles to Singapore for an international friendly with five-time world champions Brazil on October 13.
