"A special working group will be established. There will be certain members from the Executive Committee. There is a possibility that certain specialists will be involved from outside and that working group will make certain proposals for the post of head coach."

He said that the contract with the head coach of the national team Gianni De Biasi will not be renewed, that every factor regarding the new candidate will be considered and analyzed in detail: "After that, the proposals will be discussed again in the Executive Committee and a decision will be made." Information about the members of the working group will be provided soon."
According to the representative of AFFA, the name issue will not be taken as the main criterion when choosing a new head coach: "Based on the discussions, I can say that one of the important criteria is the presence of a candidate who knows the local mentality and local football players, and is more compatible with the local culture."
