Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr warns that another pay strike by the team will affect their performance at the World Cup

Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr has warned against another pay strike by the National team at the 2018 Ruusia World Cup, especially if they hope to improve on their previous outings at the global tournament.

To avoid this, according to Rohr, it is important that there is better and early preparation as well as ensuring money issues (bonuses and allowances) are sorted out in advance.

Nigeria will be paid a total of $12.5 million by FIFA for qualifying for Russia 2018 with $2.5 million of this amount paid for the Eagles to prepare adequately for the football showpiece. They will earn more if they reach the knockout rounds of the tournament as they have done in 1994 and 2014.
