Real
de Banjul Football Club said they have extended the deadline for application of
the club’s vacant ‘coach’ position to 15 August 2017.
Following
the expiry of Momodou Lamin Sey’s contract at the end of last season the club
have been inundated with applications from within and outside the country.
“Since
we announced the departure of El Hadj Sey (end of his contract) our club
secretary has received so many applications from local and foreign coaches for
the vacant position,” said club president William Abraham.
“We
have decided as a club to extend the deadline to 15th August to give chance to
any interested coaches to file in their applications for consideration,” he
added.
“The
interested candidates can send in their applications via the club email
address: info@realdebanjul.gm or to our secretariat at the Oasis Apartments
along Bertil Harding Highway.”
The
president has also been speaking to www.realdebanjul.gm about their plans for
the upcoming season following last season’s third-place finish in the league.
“Our
staff have been engaged in scouting trips to identify potential new additions
to the squad before we kick off pre-season training in early September.
“As
it is a norm in the club we will have some players transferred to bigger
leagues around the world so there is need to bring new additions.”
The
team is expected to return for pre-season training first week of September for
the first stage of its preparations before travelling to neighbouring Senegal
for an invitational tournament.
