Out of favour - Belgian Paul Put |
Gambia’s Ministry of Youth and Sports
and the Gambia Football Association (GFA) on October 31, 2011 terminated senior
national team coach Paul Put’s contract, barely two years before it was due to
expire, according to media reports.
The same applies to his compatriot
Franco Cresintini, an Italian goal keeper trainer of the senior national team.
Mr Put and his team (Scorpions of The
Gambia) on October 8 ended a pitiful African Nations Cup qualifying campaign in
a draw (1-1) against Burkina Faso
in Banjul, having gone into the game with heads
held low and hoping to gain nothing near a qualification spot, after shamefully
loosing to Namibia in Windhoek earlier.
