On Tuesday Nna Gambia News Online reported that three coaches, Alagie Sarr, Matarr Mboge and Omar Sise went through the corridors of the GFF in the weekend to be squeezed over how they intend to take charge of the national team that has since been without a coach.
Two days later, another top news emerged that former scorpions’ coach Sang Ndong was also interviewed and in fact is the favorite to land the job.
