Super Eagles head coach Éric Chelle has been linked with the vacant Olympique Marseille coaching job.
Marseille are looking for a new coach following Roberto De Zerbi’s departure by mutual consent on Tuesday.
Chelle is among the names under consideration for the vacant coaching job, according to journalist Lassana Camara.
Another African, Habib Beye is among the shortlisted candidates.
Beye, a Senegalese, was recently sacked by French club, Stade Rennes.
Chelle enhanced his reputation after guiding Nigeria to a third-place finish at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The 48-year-old has a contract with Nigeria until January 2027.
