Former Warriors and Dynamos coach Kalisto Pasuwa has been earmarked for the post of coach for the Malawi national team, “The Flames,” it has been established. Pasuwa had a stint with the Warriors in 2017.

The recommendation comes after the association announced on Saturday that it will not renew Romanian coach Mario Marinica’s contract and that he will proceed on leave for the remainder of his one-year contract.

According to reports from Blantyre, several coaches were considered for the interim post but the technical committee decided to recommend Pasuwa.

“A couple of names were thrown into the fray, but in the end it was resolved that Pasuwa should be recommended to the FAM executive committee,” a source said.

The committee’s acting chairperson who is also a FAM executive committee member, Suzgo Ngwira-Simbi, confirmed the development but refused to reveal the name of the candidate.

“It was recommended that the post should be advertised, but in the interim, a caretaker panel was recommended. However, I cannot reveal the names as this is just a recommendation to the FAM executive committee,” she said.
