The page is already turned for Hervé Renard. The French female team barely eliminated from the Paris 2024 Olympic tournament, after their defeat in the quarterfinals against Brazil (0-1), the now ex-selection of the Blue would act behind the scenes to find a new position. And a track, leading it towards a return to Africa, would be particularly advanced.
According to the Daily Post NigeriaThe 55 -year -old technician would currently negotiate with the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) the terms of a one -year contract. In bad shape in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, the Super Eagles have not had a coach since mid-June and the sudden dismissal of Finidi George, who had replaced José Santos Peseiro a month earlier.
Hervé Renard back in Africa?
Journalist Adepoju Tobi Samuel, followed by more than 115,000 subscribers on X (ex-Twitter), said that Hervé Renard would ask for a monthly salary of $ 125,000, or around 1.4 million euros annually, to sit on the bench in Nigeria. The native of Aix-les-Bains would then do a great financial operation, he who received 400,000 euros per year at the head of the Blue.
Hervé Renard, who had been contacted by Côte d’Ivoire in the middle of Can 2024 and whose name also circulated in Algeria, won the CAN twice, with Zambia in 2012 and the Elephants in 2015.
