“I categorically deny having applied for the Cameroon vacancy (or any other coaching position) or having authorised any person to do so on my behalf. I informed the MFA accordingly and provided supporting documents.”
“I am truly saddened to be the victim of fake news and I have now handed over the matter to my Attorney for further actions,” said Saintfiet.
Tom Saintfiet replaced Pietro Ghedin as national coach in October. He led Malta in a 0-3 defeat to Estonia and a 0-1 defeat to Luxembourg at Ta’ Qali and a 0-5 defeat to Finland in Turkey.
