Since Finidi George’s resignation in June, the Super Eagles have been without a head coach.

Renard, along with Steve McClaren and Tom Saintfiet have been speculated as potential candidates following the NFF’s announcement of its intention to hire a foreign technical adviser.

The Federation is now under increasing pressure to make a decision and announce their choice.
