Mali: Will Tom Saintfiet leave unexpectedly?

Tom Saintfiet’s contract with the Mali Eagles could be terminated sooner than anticipated. According to several sources, the Belgian coach is reportedly dissatisfied with the current situation within the Malian Football Federation.

Based on information from French journalist Romain Molina, there is significant tension behind the scenes at the Malian Football Federation (FEMAFOOT). The same sources point to several reasons, including delayed salary payments. Tom Saintfiet is also facing interference from the Ministry of Sports and power struggles within FEMAFOOT.

All these factors, along with the crisis that has gripped Malian football since the resignation of the executive board led by Mamoutou Touré, could accelerate the Belgian coach’s departure. So far, FEMAFOOT has not issued any official statement regarding the situation.
