The Ministry of Sports has sanctioned the decision by FAZ to recruit a quality national team coach and approve a US$25,000 salary package for the same.

Chanda said that following a meeting between the FAZ leadership and the Ministry of Sports, Youth and Child Development, the two parties agreed to make progress towards recruiting a high-profile coach.
