We need money sack to Jose Peseiro - NFF
The NFF, through one of its board members, said the organisation lacks the financial might to part with Jose Peseiro due to a contractual agreement.
NFF board member Hon. Nse Essien revealed that it is impossible to sack the coach at the moment.
The NFF board had recently extended Peseiro's contract, but they cut his pay from $70,000 to $50,000, claiming they couldn't afford to keep paying his previous wage.
Essien claims they are even having trouble paying him the $50,000 monthly salary and that since taking over as the head coach in May 2022, Jose Peseiro has only gotten three months' pay.
