Super Eagles head coach, Finidi George will earn N15 million as monthly salary, it has been revealed.
Finidi, who was presented to the media at the Conference Room of the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja, in a ceremony attended by the Minister for Sports Owan Enoh, on Monday, had refused to reveal how much he will be earning.
“I am not quite worried about earning even as much or even more than (predecessor Jose) Peseiro because what I’m getting is good enough for me at the moment. The moment I add value to what I’m here to do, the money will definitely come,” said Finidi.
