MOGADISHU (HORN OBSERVER) - Somali national team coach, Abdellatif Salef has been kicked out only three weeks after his appointment for the post.

In a statement, Somali football Federation (SFF) on Tuesday announced the dismissal of Salef, a Belgium national of Moroccan origin.

SFF said that the coach was "undisciplined” and doesn’t possess the professionalism that a national team coach should have.

"He continuously used abusive words against the players, he maltreated them since taking charge of the team and he doesn’t have good behaviour,” the statement reads in part.


The coach was also accused of failing to cooperate with his technical team and as well as the players.

"The players were unhappy with his training sessions, as his skills and experience are not those of national team standards, while he didn’t even come up with a training plan” the statements

The sacking of the coach came several hours before Somalia was due to encounter Djibouti in a friendly match on Tuesday evening.
