Football Association of Malawi (FAM) president Walter Nyamilandu has admitted his organisation does not have the money to hire another expatriate coach immediately. He also confirmed the deal with Belgian coach Tom Saintfiet, who began work on a voluntary basis in July, has ended following the 2-0 defeat to Nigeria on Saturday. "For now I am not too sure whether we will be able to afford and expatriate coach or whether we will be able to find a capable local coach," Nyamilandu told BBC Sport. "The money that is available is currently being used to pay former national coach Kinnah Phiri and his team. Former national coach Phirri, his assistant Young Chimodzi and technical director Jack Chamangwana are all still employed as development coaches under contracts with the Malawi government. The government decided to redeploy the trio rather than sack them and so have to pay damages and have contracts until May 2014.
