Nigeria Football Federation have rejected the current Adidas Home World Cup 2010 football shirt, saying a new design has yet to be approved by the Federation.

The new 10/12 kit made by adidas is already for sale in the FSC Shop and worldwide retail for weeks, and was also on display at the 2010 World Cup Draws in South Africa, but NFF's Head of Marketing, Idris Adama, said that the NFF had yet to see and approve the world Cup 2010 football shirt.

"We have not finalised anything about our new jerseys," Adama said. "We are looking at some designs with adidas, but we havent signed off on anything yet."

Adama added that the NFF were looking to come to a final decision before the African Nations Cup but did not say when the new kit would be ready.

The shirt released by adidas has upset many Nigerians, who have described it as a generic, off-the-shelf offering with little creative design.

Still available here

Thanks to Adegoke

    I like this design. Very good, but a club team hasn´t got a frontnumber.
