No bonus issues for Eagles
The Super Eagles have been urged to go
all out and defeat Argentina in the opener with the guarantee that
their winning bonuses will be promptly paid by the Nigeria Football
Federation.
Issues arising from unpaid bonuses have
always had a disruptive effect in the Super Eagles especially at
international tournaments but the football house is out to ensure that
nothing like that happens at the World Cup.
“We know it is not about the money, as
every player wants to play in the World Cup and give his best,
especially against the very big teams (such as Argentina),” said NFF
President Sani Lulu who is presently in South Africa.
“Our players have made it clear they are not after the money at this
tournament,” continued Lulu. “But the money could also serve as added
incentive as they go for the three points.”
