Sports kit manufacturing company NIKE may currently be reviewing their partnership with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), according to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
The company gave a hint of their intentions in a letter sent to the NFF on Thursday, asking the federation to furnish them with some facts.
NAN reports that the review may not be unconnected with the ratings of the Super Eagles, the senior national male football team, which is NFF's major selling point.
The team's current position in the latest FIFA rankings is 66th position in the world and 14th in Africa, their worst ever.
NAN also understands that the barrage of criticism which surrounded the NIKE deal when it was announced might have also necessitated the review of the partnership.
It is also understood that performances of the other nine national teams including the Golden Eaglets and Super Falcons would also be reviewed by NIKE.
