The Football Association of Malawi (FAM) has reorganised the technical set up of the Flames to ensure that the side ” is well prepared for the forthcoming Total Energies Africa Cup of Nations, Cameroun 2022.”
A statement signed by Alfred Gunda says this was agreed at a recent executive committee meeting.
This comes against the background of the Flames’ dismal performance at the just ended Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers, where the team ended bottom of the table.
Upon reflection, it has become very clear that the team has technical and tactical deficiencies that have to be worked on in order to turn around its performance.
“After careful consideration, the Executive Committee approved that that new Technical Director, Marian Mario Marinica should temporarily take charge of the Flames as Head of Technical Panel supported by Meck Mwase.” reads the statement.
However, realising the enormity of the gap that has to be closed and the
daunting task that lies ahead, the Executive Committee approved the hiring of a professional Data Analyst and Sports Pyschologist to work with the team.
In light of these changes, the full composition of the technical panel for the Total Energies Africa Cup of Nations, Cameroun 2022 is as follows:
Head of Technical Panel – Marian Mario Marinica.
Coach – Meck Mwase.
1st Assistant Coach – Lovemore Fazili.
2nd Assistant Coach – Bob Mpinganjira.
Data Analyst – Ged Searson .
Sports Psychologist – Clwyd Jones.
Physiotherapist – Chikondi Mandalasi.
Team Doctor – Gift Ligomeka.
Team Manager – Clement Kafwafwa.
