The good work coach Eric Chelle has done within a short time on the Super Eagles has already attracted interest from several countries, including Tunisia who the Super Eagles defeated 3-2 at the group stage of the 2025 AFCON in Morocco.
Also named in the chase for the Malian tactician are two 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Angola and Guinea as it was also understood that Mali who dumped him after the last AFCON in Cote d”Ivoire are also lamenting that they let the coach go.
Tunisia is believed to have tabled a $100,000 a month deal before Chelle to dump the Super Eagles after the ongoing AFCON.
A source close to the Super Eagles coach said, “Yes, I can confirm to you that there are offers for Eric.
“At least two 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Angola and Guinea have indicated interest in working with him, but what is important here is that he is focused on achieving his target with Nigeria in Morocco.”
The NFF had handed Eric Chelle the target of reaching the AFCON final and he is now just a game away – the semifinal against hosts Morocco Wednesday in Rabat – to meet this target.
He is halfway through a two-year contract he signed with the NFF on January 7, 2025.
