The Djibouti Football Federation (FDF) has
dissolved the entire national football team in
a bid to stop them from embarrassing the
country and poor football results.
The FDF announced in a statement that the
squad and coaching staff have been sacked
in other to focus their attention to
promising youngsters.
The move comes after Djibouti lost 5-1 at
home to Ethiopia in the first leg of their
2018 African Nations Championship
qualifier on Saturday.
The statement by the Country’s technical
director, Omar Ali Mohamed, read:
“As Team A has no result, we will focus on
youth football,” said technical director Omar
Ali Mohamed.
“This is not about money problems. It is the
new policy of the federation.”
“Maybe we will participate in the next
Under-15, Under-17 or Under-20
competitions.”
An FDF statement said the decision was
necessary due to ‘the never-ending series of
bad results’ of the national team.
Djibouti ranked 185th in the latest Fifa’s
world rankings have never qualified for any
major international tournaments.
