Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is considering hiring Mladen Krstajic as Gernot Rohr\u2019s replacement, BBC Africa reports.<\/p>\n

Rohr\u2019s role as the head coach of the Super Eagles is under scrutiny as the team barely scraped through to the 2022 World Cup play-offs.<\/p>\n

In their last two home fixtures, Nigeria lost to the Central African Republic (CAR) and drew with Cape Verde.<\/p>\n

There are speculations that Rohr is in negotiation with the NFF over the termination of his contract.<\/p>\n

The football house is already looking at Krstajic, who led Serbia to the 2018 FIFA World Cup staged in Russia.<\/p>\n

The 47-year-old managed the team from 2017 to 2019 and recently quit as manager of FK TSC Ba\u010dka Topola, a Serbian SuperLiga side, last October, after just 10 months in charge.<\/p>\n
