Super Eagles Assistant Coach Requires Surgery, Begs NFF To Pay 1 Month Salary

Ailing Super Eagles assistant coach Jean Francois Lusciuto has begged to be paid at least part of what the Nigeria Football Federation owe him in salaries for him to proceed to Belgium for further treatment after his surgery in South Africa last month.

It was gathered that the Belgian coach is owed five months’ pay, which totals N10m at N2m a month, according to Africanfootball.com.

“The ‘whiteman’ is really down — his stomach problem, which needed surgery in South Africa, has persisted and he now wants to fly to Belgium for better treatment,” a top official disclosed.

“He has said he only needs his salary for a month to do that and he has written several mails to the NFF, but sadly he has not received any reply.”
