Gernot Rohr wants to help struggling French club side, Bordeaux, avoid relegation if called upon.
The Super Eagles coach played for Bordeaux for more than a decade and also managed the side between 1990 and 1996.
Despite being Nigeria’s current coach tasked with preparing the squad to win the upcoming Nations cup and with an impending 2022 World Cup qualifying series set to start, Rohr says he is willing to return in any capacity to help the club maintain their Ligue 1 status.
“We have to make the club sparkle and we need a really combative and united team. Coach Gasset also unfortunately seems a little lost in this situation. He must have tried a lot of things already, he still has the experience,” Rohr told France Bleu.
“We didn't give up, we reacted but what we see is that the results are still just as catastrophic and that you concede three or four goals. .. It's still difficult to always say the same thing.
“Boys do not get along, from what I was told. And then, there is an unconducive atmosphere, unfortunately, with the supporters. It is very difficult for everyone to work effectively.

“I have always been the man of the club. Currently, I am under contract with Nigeria. But if it is to help the Girondins, I will always be available.”
