Paul Le Guen to be paid N16.2m per month

Super Eagles target, Paul Le Guen would be paid a massive monthly salary of N16.2m, the equivalent of €44,000 by the Nigeria Football Federation.


The football house held talks with Le Guen who had a successful managerial career in France, most notably leading Olympique Lyonnais to three consecutive Ligue 1 titles.

He also managed Stade Rennais, Paris Saint-Germain, Glasgow Rangers and the Cameroon national team. A reliable source in the NFF discarded reports of employing a Serbian coach insisting that Paul Le Guen remains their favourite. ‘’Initially, we thought of getting a Serbian.

"We’ve since moved on and held talks with Le Guen who is enthusiastic on working with the star-studded Super Eagles. He is a gentleman and stickler for discipline’’, the source noted. Le Guen qualified Cameroon for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, where they crashed out in the first round.
