Reports have emerged that the Nigeria Football Federation(NFF) last week approached a German coach to take over from Stephen Keshi as Super Eagles coach.
Former Bayer Leverkusen manager, Christoph Daum revealed that the NFF approached him with an offer to coach the African champions.
"I had offers last week to become coach of Nigeria," Daum told Sky Sports.
Currently without a job,Daum said that he will start coaching a team,although he declined mentioning if it was a club or national team side.
"By next year, I'll take over a team," Daum added.
The 60-year old has previously worked German clubs: FC Cologne, VfL Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt and others.
Keshi is yet to get a substantive contract with the NFF and is only back managing the Super Eagles on an interim basis.
The new NFF leadership that will emerge today is expected to make a decision on his future,whether to retain him or dispense with his services.
