Samson Siasia will earn $20,000 a month if he accepts the NFF's (Nigeria Football Federation) offer to handle the Super Eagles for the next four years.

A close source to NFF officials told Goal.com that Siasia demanded a monthly salary of $100,000 (N15 million) and a signing-on fee of $1 million (about N150 million), which now appears to be far from what the federation can afford. 

The NFF board first proposed to Siasia and his lawyer a monthly salary of $13,000 (N2 million) before it reviewed it upwards to $20,000 (N3million) with the proviso that he would pay from that amount whoever he picks as his assistants.

"Siasia actually asked for a signing-on fee of $1million, a monthly salary of N15 million, a house, a brand new car with a driver and a cook too. He was accompanied by his lawyer in the discussions with the board.

"After much pressure, he reduced the amount to N12 million but the board said they can't pay more than N2million, but later increased it to N3millon."

Siasia will meet the board of NFF on his return from the CAF Champions League game in Egypt with Heartland.

Former Eagles handler Lagerback was paid $300,000 per month for the five month duration of his contract, which has been a reference point for Siasia over his intended contract with the NFF.
