Jose Peseiro Set to Leave Nigerian National Team Role
The coaching future of Jose Peseiro, at the helm of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, seems to be reaching a conclusion as reports suggest his imminent departure for Egyptian club Zamalek.
Since assuming the position as head coach of the Super Eagles, Jose Peseiro has encountered challenges in establishing a solid footing within the Nigerian national team.
Despite being recently offered a renewed one-year contract extension by the Nigeria Football Federation, accompanied by a reduction in his salary, doubts surrounding his tenure persist, particularly given the team's underwhelming performances.
Nigeria's successful qualification for the 2024 AFCON tournament in Ivory Coast contrasts with concerns regarding Peseiro's coaching abilities, magnified by the team's recent performances. Notably, the Super Eagles' 1-1 draws against Lesotho and Zimbabwe during the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers have contributed to the growing uncertainty about Peseiro's future.
Sport journalist Pooja has added to the speculation by suggesting that Jose Peseiro is poised to sign a pre-contract agreement with Zamalek.
Pooja shared insights on social media, hinting at the possibility of Peseiro assuming coaching responsibilities for the Egyptian side following the conclusion of the 2024 AFCON with the Super Eagles.
