The PUNCH has exclusively learnt that the Nigeria Football Federation has begun contract renewal talks with American coach Randy Waldrum,

who led the former African champions to a round of 16 finish at the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand last month.

“The reports flying around are false, they are mere rumours. What was decided at the meeting was that the Technical Committee should, as a matter of urgency, contact Waldrum to begin the process of his contract renewal after he led the Falcons to a round of 16 place with his team posting outstanding performances against the favourites at the World Cup.

On Tuesday, the NFF excluded the Falcons coaching job from its list of advertised vacant positions for the women’s national teams on its website. Only the head coach jobs for the U-17 and U-20 women’s teams were listed, a pointer that Waldrum was set to retain his coaching role with the Falcons.
