Fiji Fa

Despite earlier stating that the new coach "will be a local coach... based in Fiji", the sport's governing body has appointed a former Guadeloupe captain to lead the national side.

The Fiji Football Association has declined to respond to claims by a former local football administrator that the sport is "being held hostage" by the national body's hierarchy.

Thomas Dunn and Sterling Vasconcellos have joined the Eastern Suburbs AFC in Auckland in search of opportunities to develop their football skills and talents.
