Franco-Malian tactician Eric Chelle, whose contract with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) runs until January 2027, is drawing increasing attention following his impressive performance with the Super Eagles.
Sources report that Chelle has already turned down an approach from Tunisia, choosing to remain focused on his current role with Nigeria for the time being.

Despite his ongoing deal, insiders told BSNSports that Angola and Gabon are actively pursuing the coach, offering lucrative terms as both nations look to bolster their national teams ahead of forthcoming international competitions.
Chelle is expected to meet with NFF officials in the coming days to discuss his future. The talks are set to reaffirm his commitment, outline long-term plans, and potentially review contractual terms amid growing external interest.
The outcome of the meeting is likely to determine whether Nigeria retains the highly rated coach or faces a possible challenge to keep him beyond the short term.
