SALISU DON HAMMER!

Former Enyimba coach Salisu Yusuf has reportedly agreed a sign-on fee of 13 million Naira and a monthly salary of a million Naira with El Kanemi Warriors.

These personal terms will rank him as one of the best paid coaches in Nigeria.

Yusuf, who once played for the Maiduguri club, has gone for the cash after he guided Enyimba to win this year’s Federation Cup and finish runners-up in the Premier League.

Reports reveal that Yusuf will soon be presented to the press by the ambitious El Kanemi, who finished fourth on the table last season on their return to the top flight after a long absence.

The former Super Eagles assistant coach has been one of the most sought after coaches in the country.

His financial demands scuttled a return to FC Taraba, who have won promotion to the top division for the first time in their history.

Yusuf asked for a salary of 1.2 million Naira a month, return flight tickets for all the team’s away matches as well as a sign-on fee of 15 million Naira to return to the Jalingo club.

In his first spell at the club then in the second division, he pocketed a sign-on fee of eight million Naira and was paid a monthly salary of 500,000 Naira.
