Former England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson has reportedly had discussions with officials with a view to taking over as Nigeria's national team coach.
Tord Grip, assistant to the Swede during his time with England, said Eriksson had talks 10 days ago.
"I don't know exactly what those discussions were about. I assume they were about the Nigerian national team," Grip told Swedish Radio.
Eriksson was linked with West Ham and Newcastle but denied both reports.
Meanwhile, there has also been speculation of a return to Benfica and a move to Inter Milan.
