Keshi: I have SA offer

Cape Town - The leading candidate for the vacant Bafana Bafana head coach role has confirmed that he has an offer on the table from SAFA.

Stephen Keshi, who has not formally left his post as Nigeria coach, has told Soccer Laduma's Nigerian affialite, SL10.ng, that he currently has several offers which includes the offer to take over the coaching role of the South African national team.  

While not ruling out the possibility of staying on with the Super Eagles, Keshi said that he is currently considering all his offers. 

Keshi, who lead Nigeria into the Round of 16, said that he had received many offers but it was South Africa who had been "very vocal" about the offer.

Keshi also hinted that he may be tempted by the size of the offer when quizzed on whether or not he may stay on as Nigeria coach. 

The Nigeria boss hinted at leaving his current job when he said that it would be a good thing to experience "other climates".
