Super Eagles manager Jose Peseiro has denied reports linking him with Egyptian Premier League giants Zamalek concerning the vacant managerial role at the club.
Peseiro, who recently signed a contract extension as Super Eagles boss, was tipped as a replacement for Juan Carlos Osorio, who was sacked a few days ago due to poor performance.
The Portuguese manager is currently under fire as the Nigeria national team coach after dropping points in the Super Eagles' back-to-back games in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
The Super Eagles of Nigeria played out a 1-1 draw against Lesotho and Zimbabwe in their first two qualifiers and have just two points out of a possible six.

"At the present, all my focus is on the Nigerian national team [Super Eagles] only," the 63-year-old said.
