Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr has expressed his aspiration to continue as Nigeria’s coach, as his current contract nears expiry.

The Coach took charge of the national team in August 2016, on an initial two-year deal, which was extended until June 2020 after the country secured a place at the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup.

He had also guided the Super Eagles to the World Cup and the African Cup of Nations, where they finished third in Egypt last year.

With contract talks scheduled to take place in February, Rohr hopes to continue his exploit with the Super Eagles as they target a place at the AFCON 2021 in Cameroon, and 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The coach also acknowledged how he had developed a youthful team despite the retirement of key players like Victor Moses, John Obi Mikel and Odion Ighalo.
