NFF engaged the services of Bruno Labbadia as Super Eagles Coach before the deal broke down few days after announcement.
Reacting to whether or not the federation is it ready to engage any foreign coach, Gusau said payment has been a big issue of embarrassment to Nigeria and are in discussion with sponsors to take care of the payment.
"We are currently in discussion with Dangote Group, BUA, MTN, Baba Ijebu and others on the payment of foreign coach. Though, Eguavoen is doing well, but if we must engage a coach, we must make sure that the issue of payment is sorted. Until last February, the Federal Government did not pay the salary of our former coaches leading to 18-month debt of Jose Peseiro before President Tinubu led government cleared the debt.
