otherwise.

SAFA President Dr Danny Jordaan through
their website that the job had been
offered to anyone.
The SAFA statement comes to put an end
to endless rumors of theNigerian coach
accepting SAFA’s offer.
On the website was a statement that
read: “The South African Football
Association (SAFA) would like to clarify
further insinuations that the Association
has offered Stephen Keshi the job as
Bafana Bafana coach.
Reports coming through and carried out
by several media outlets are quoting Mr
Keshi alleging he has an offer on the table
from SAFA. “There is no iota of truth in
this statement.
SAFA has not offered any coach the
Bafana Bafana coaching job and we don’t
take kindly to such rumours,” said SAFA
President, Dr Danny Jordaan from Brazil.
“It is not true because SAFA has not
entered into a discussion with any coach
or a representative of any coach,” he
added.
Keshi had earlier said in an interview with
SL10 said:”I have spent over two years as
coach of Nigeria, and Nigeria flows in my
veins but I just have to move on. “If the
offer comes, we will sit down and talk and
if there’s something concrete, then we’ll
see how it goes. I have several offers but
it’s South Africa that have been very vocal
about their offer, so that’s the way it is
