Frenchman Paul Le Guen has rejected his appointment as Nigeria coach after he claimed they did not meet his contractual terms, according to media reports from France.
According to French sports newspaper L’Equipe, Le Guen has rejected the Nigeria post.
He declined the position after several conditions he tabled were not met, according to the newspaper.
Earlier today, AfricanFootball.com exclusively revealed “contractual disputes” between Le Guen and his prospective employers, adding that the former Cameroon and Lyon coach was adamant he will not shift from his position on several of the contending issues on his contract.
It was understood that, among his conditions, was he coming down with a support staff that included an assistant and a goalkeeper trainer.
Nigeria have been without a permanent coach since February, when Sunday Oliseh walked out on the Super Eagles after claiming his contract has been severally breached.
The three-time African champions are drawn in a tough 2018 World Cup qualifying group that has Algeria, Cameroon and Zambia.
