The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has stated that FIFA has rejected their case against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This was confirmed by NFF General Secretary Mohammed Sanusi on Tuesday.

Sanusi, on the other hand, indicated that they were dissatisfied with the ruling and will file an appeal.

He said: “We have received the decision of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee on our petition, but we are not satisfied with the decision, which rejected our petition.

“I want to assure Nigerians that the NFF has immediately commenced the process of appealing the decision.”
