NFF confirms collapse of Labbadia deal, names Eguavoen as caretaker coach
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) blamed the “stringent regulations of German tax authorities” for the collapse of Bruno Labbadia’s appointment as Super Eagles head coach.
On Tuesday, NFF announced Labbadia as the Eagle’s new coach.
The federation said an agreement had been reached with the German, adding that he would take over the team immediately.
On Friday, however, there were reports that the 58-year-old tactician has pulled out of the deal.
The reports said the manager cancelled the deal because of the “public rush” to announce his arrival.
In a statement, NFF confirmed the development and cited “tax issue” as the cause of the contract collapse
