Peseiro, who had previously signed a short-term contract with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), saw his tenure expire upon the conclusion of the tournament.

Last year, the 63-year-old Portuguese tactician inked a six-month deal with the NFF, setting the stage for his stewardship during the AFCON.

A pivotal clause in the contract stipulated that Peseiro was required to guide the Super Eagles to at least the semi-finals of the competition.
