"We have a 95% assurance that the Darren Stewart will become the next Head Coach. The committee was also involved in appointing him as coach, and FAM Secretary General Hussein Jawaz has said that a final decision will be delivered within a week. This committee will also over see the younger teams along with the senior teams.
