Nigeria Super Eagles’ coach, Stephen Keshi, has denied reports that Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has offered him a N7 million ($43, 284) monthly wage in a new contract due to take off. On Wednesday, it was revealed that Keshi was offered N7 million monthly pay package with the coach accepting it and the deal to be finalized next week.
 
However, Keshi has reportedly denied discussing a contract with any Nigerian official either face-to-face or on phone but admitted talks with NFF's Deji Tinubu.

“No!  I have not discussed anything with anybody! I left Nigeria before the Sallah break. I didn’t speak with any of the committee members before I left and I haven’t spoken with any of them on the matter since then,” he said.

“It was only Deji Tinubu who said they want me to continue and I said fine; let them bring up their offer that I may see.  That’s it. I don’t know where they came up with N7 million offer from. I am not aware of that,” Keshi said.
