The Nigeria Football Federation may not renew the contract of Super Falcons coach, Randy Waldrum, Reelradio.com.ng reports.

The deal between the NFF and Randy Waldrum expired after the elimination of the Super Falcons from the ongoing 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

The country had one of its best performances at the competition beating hosts Australia and recording draws against Canada and the Republic of Ireland before getting knocked out by European champions England via penalties in the round of 16.

Questions have surrounded the extension of the deal of the former Trinidad and Tobago and Houston Dash coach after the relationship with the NFF had deteriorated before the start of the World Cup after the coach accused the federation of lack of support for the team in their preparation for the tournament in an interview via The Whistle Podcast.

The coach in another interview also accused the NFF of owing players bonuses for up to two years.

The contract of both Waldrum and the head coach of the Super Eagles Jose Peseiro have expired but there is a vote of confidence for Peseiro, however, NFF boss, Ibrahim Gusau, in an interview with foremost sports journalist Mitchell Obi has hinted that the federation are in a lookout for a new manager.

“When the contract of the coach expires, we have to allow the Technical Committee to do their job and make a proper recommendation.
