The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) also confirmed the condition of leaving within one day.
Meanwhile the federation president commended the Nigerian footballers for their brilliant performance saying:
"They showed heart and commitment and deserve the praise of Nigerians for their efforts."
It would be recalled that the Super Eagles did their best to advance to the quarterfinals of the Mundial, but the game ended in 2-0 victory by France, with both goals scored in the second half.
After the game, when asked about his future in the national team, the head coach Stephen Keshi allegedly said he did not know whether he would stay or not.
However the latest breaking reports say that Keshi and the team’s captain Jospeh Yobo have publicly announced their quit.
