President of the NFF, Ibrahim Musa Gusau has expressed confidence that Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle will continue in his role despite reported interests.<\/span><\/p>\n

He added that the coach enjoys working with the Super Eagles and is determined to win silverware with the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe still have a one-year contract with Eric. Whatever interest anyone shows in him, they have to wait until his contract expires.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe dream of every coach is to achieve success, especially at major tournaments. The key thing is that I know Eric Chelle believes in the Super Eagles. He believes he can achieve whatever he wants in his coaching career, especially with a national team on the African continent.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has so much belief in the Super Eagles and confidence that he can achieve his dreams with this team. I have discussed it with him several times.<\/p>\n

During his time in charge, Chelle has reportedly attracted interest from the Tunisia Football Federation.<\/p>\n

More recently, intermediaries have linked him with French club Olympique Marseille.<\/p>\n
