Micho who is getting ready to dump his former job has been contacted by the Nigerian Football Federation, NFF, and talks opened for his confirmation as Nigeria’s next coach at the end of a two-match mandate handed to the three-man caretaker coaching team led by Samson Siasia.
Sources confirmed that the NFF has been in talks with Micho and his representatives since the CHAN in Rwanda.
